ZOE!,!”ARE U DEAD THO U HAVENT POSTED IN LIKE 6 MONTHS.
Is it weird to say that I feel proud of you? As a procrastinator that I am myself I can understand the feeling of a productive sprint, so I relate a lot 😂 Enjoy the process and keep up with the good work! 😊
These are the videos on KZread that just have my FULL attention throughout the whole video the whole time. It's amazing, goodjob Kat! Keep the book going u got this
You breathe so much life into my drive to my own enthusiasm to finish my own first draft. You're a goddamn machine woman!

THAT'S BECAUSE THEY DO!!
Why are these charts so satisfying ??
Can i just say that the progression to greens on these charts are hella satisfying? LMAO. And YES WEEKS STARTS ON MONDAYS.
You do know consistency, constantly changing your approach is still 'technically' a consistent pattern... of change.
You write 7k per week, I write 1k per week...on some weeks. And I just jumped from chapter 1 to chapter 3 just because I felt like it. You are a queen, Kat! Edit: Ok, I don't know what happened, but since I left this comment I finished my second chapter and I started writing more then 600 words per day. Wow... Thank you all for the support! 💕💕

What, I really liked the timing and the alarm being filmed ahah
THE!!! BEST!!! WRITING!!! VLOGS!!!
I've gotten back into my writing habit since that one bad week and I completed seven chapters this week, woo! My word count is at 42,549 words. I'm gonna try to write a whole nother chapter today. Keep going Kat, let's see who can finish first! Also, tomorrow I will have been with my book for exactly three years, and two months! It's on draft #4, and 0 of the drafts have actually been completed. With that amount if time you'd think that I would have a lot more written, but until recently I was a SUPER inconsistent writer, I swapped between projects all the time and would go months at a time without writing anything.
Thank you so much for making these writing vlog. You inspired me to write more and also make my weeks go by way quicker because I have something to look forward to every Monday when I come back from school, so thank you!
Ahh yes, MonTuesday. My favorite day of the week.

I love your writing vlogs! Honestly the content I'm enjoying most out of all of my subscription box rn
this has a good combination of book haul voice Kat and cooking with Kat voice Kat
Halloween is my goal to finish act one lol I can't get Scrivener on my laptop (damn Chromebook) so I use this website called writetrack that tells me how many words I need to write each day to make my goal of 25k. These vlogs honestly keep me going and I'm just so grateful for them! I know they're probably a lot of upkeep for you, with filming and editing and stuff. You're doing such a great job and I'm just so proud of you and happy for you Kat :) Keep on keeping on. Just remember that just because you use just a lot just doesn't mean just isn't needed just like really think about it
I love these writing vlogs! Definitely the best part of my Monday. I can't wait 'till the day I read your book
I'm so happy for you Kat. I feel like a proud parent. I really think this is a book I will be picking up from a bookstores new release shelf in the not-too-distant future. 🏆

Still loving this series, and I love following along on your journey! :D
For some reason I can’t stop laughing when you say “book” every other minute
Consistency is that like a country or maybe a planet? Because I don't know her either.

although, I'm so happy to see book come a long!
Your method baffles me, I could never skip around while writing a story, but I'm fascinated and really excited for you that it's going so well!! I can't wait to see how revisions go for this method once you've finished! :)
I'm always so impressed with how much you are able to get done in just a week!
OOO Final Battle 🤔 I love that you call the book book haha! I can’t wait til you come up with the title!
I just discovered your writing videos today and they are giving me liiiiife! So inspiring and motivating and your outlining work has blown my mind. Going to try it myself this week! Good luck with the rest of BOOK ✨👏🏻

Yes! Weeks start on Monday. Fight me.
I loooove how fast you're getting through this! I'm going to definitely be coming back and watching this whenever I start writing my book for motivation!
I LOVE your writing vlogs, they help me get motivated to edit my novel!
Thank you for doing these vlogs Kat!! I have been "working on" a book for years, and been very on and off it. This series inspires me a lot and gives me a great boost to start working on it again! And to work more consistently on it, instead of feeling like I need to dedicate a full day or evening - or not write at all. Keep going!! I am super excited and really want to buy whatever you come out with
I swear these writing vlogs are the only good things that happen on Mondays
12:24 *Where Kat was momentarily distracted by the mere mention of her favourite book of all time*
I love these videos! It’s super fun and interesting and you’re so engaging. Really enjoy your way of editing as well ☺️
i LOVE these writing vlogs i look forward to them every week and they honestly boost my mood A LOT and they inspire me to write
I also can't believe it's been an entire month we've been on this journey with you! Your progress is insane! Can't wait to read this!
I just... I'm gonna be real and so sappy and gross right now but I just love this and love you so much and I'm so happy and proud of you for sticking with this (and slightly jealous but that's another thing). Also I'd be interested in seeing a vlog when you're done with this draft about how you format a 4 act and a 2 act structure cuz you're so helpful and imma need all the help I can get lol 😂 so many ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️s

These vlogs inspired me to get back to my writing project that over the past week I've added 10,000 words to! Thanks Kat!
I’m loving these vlogs and I like that it’s keeping you going on track with the book! It would be fun to go back and watch these when you are finished and later hopefully publishing! KEEP IT GOING KAT! Woooo
It was still good progress. You will make it for sure!!! :)
QUESTION KAT!!! How do you pull up the stats like that in scrivener?? I can pull up the project targets but how do you do so you can see each section like that?? Please and thank you!!

(Ik I'm not Kat but i know the answer to your question lol) If you go to the outliner view and right click on the bar at the top that has "title," "status," etc. on it you should be able to check "total progress" along with some other features to add it as a category!

Kat! So many bad things happening right now in general and your writing vlogs are happy spots in my mondays!!! Love u
You scared me there with the title Kat!!!! I'm so happy that you're so motivated and loving the writing process!!! I'm just trying to feel as inspired as you to work on my final project for my course, but it's hard when what you have to do is calculated a bunch of differencial equations when the model just don't behave as it should!!!!! Keep the good work!!!! Can't wait to read Book!!!!
I always look forward to watching your writing vlogs. You just look so happy working on book and I love seeing that and your writing process!! Also inspires me to write haha. Good luck Kat!! I'm cheering you on!
Yay! The writing Vlogs are the reason, I actually look forward to Mondays now.

I am LOVINGGGG this series! May your inner editor always be this quiet and your writing always be this joy-filled!
Kat, my life is a bunch of crap right now, but your writing blogs are such a welcome reprieve. Thank you very much, and good luck on the projects. 💛
Yay! This is so fun I’m loving this series.
These are so motivating. Also CONGRATS on your anniversary with BOOK!
A forgetable person once said to me "consistency is the hobglobin of a small mind." Meaning...change is a good thing.Well done.
KEEP KILLING IT KAT ;) I'm so SO happy you're enjoying writing again, I've been feeling this way this year as well. It's so freeing and wonderful, isn't it? Best of luck to you
I just love these writing vlogs.
I am a reader not a writer but I really enjoy your reading vlogs. I’m glad to hear you are happy and working on a project you’re excited about.
I love seeing these updates, can't wait for Book to finally be here so we can read it! Also, I still freak out a little every time I see your Suga wallpaper
It's just so nice watching you getting so productive and consistent, it motivates me to do the same for my design work ❤️
New day of the week... Montuesday. 😉 Loving the series and seeing your progress. Thanks for sharing! 💕
Do any of the cardboard characters have a tick? A habit they're unaware of? Something unusual about them? Sometimes if I focus on what sticks out, I'm able to use that to breath life into him/her.
You're powering through this! It's seriously impressive. I love the charts!
I really, really love these writing vlogs 😍
YOU WERE NOT WEARING A PINK SHIRT ON WEDNESDAY THE THIRD OF OCTOBER (which is known as Mean Girls day) ??? she asked him what day it was in October 3rd and he said "It's October third". Kat I'm disappointed in your Tshirt choices. I really like these vlogs though. I love how enthusiastic you are about this.
Kat I am loving these writing videos! Your positivity and enthusiasm towards ‘book’ is infectious. I’ve had scrivener downloaded for ages but don’t really know how to use it properly: I’ve watched your previous video on the basics but would LOVE a tutorial on how to set the targets/see the charts etc?! It would be so helpful if that would be something you’d consider making for us. Thanks again for the great videos: looking forward to the next one already.

woohoo! Go Kat! I adore your writing vlogs ^^ I'm trying to finish my first draft before Halloween. I'm falling behind though ahhh!!! I like your idea about
These videos make me so happy!! I'm so glad book is going well :-)
AHH I love these vlogs!! I was writing a book (I recently finished) and I would’ve loved to have these while I was writing to feel like I wasn’t alone in the process 😂❤️
I recently found your channel and I kind of love you. And then I saw you had Yoongi as your wallpaper and now I really love you.
Keep it going, you're doing great! Glad to see you're still enjoying Book!
These have been inspiring me to work on a project I started a year ago! And you are so me, it's insane!
Loving these weekly writing vlogs!
These vlogs have made me get back inot writing myself
Kat your vlogs inspired me to pick up one of my projects and get going on it; thank you!!!
Your way of breaking down word count goals is mwah! perfect. Bless.

Awesome job!! The title kind of scared me lol I was like NOOOOO hopefully she doesn't hate book!!
so on your recommendation I downloaded Scrivener (the trial version for now) and I'm officially working on my first electronically written novel. I'm so excited!! I'm also participating in NaNoWriMo this year! thank you for being such a strong motivator for those of us who are "always on their bullsh*t" can't wait for your novel!!! ❤
Hurray!! A new writing video! You’ve come so far in BOOK Kat! We’re all proud of you! Keep it up!

@katytastic You should get the app called “Forest” it’s an amazing app for if you want to designate time to doing something without being distracted by your phone. The apps idea is that you set an allotted amount of time to do something and during that time you grow a tree, if you go on your phone in that time then it kills your tree. You receive coins after completing the growth of a tree and if you collect a certain amount of coins you can exchange them in and the company plants a real tree in an area in the world that needs trees for eg they plant trees in Ethiopia It’s amazing and fairly beneficial for the environment if lots of people use it . I use it to study and then on an evening designate 40 minutes to watch telly or read without being on your phone.
I’m skipping school because I’m sick and this just made my day a LOT better💓
I'm loving these vlogs so much! Thanks for sharing this with us! ❣️ That's so funny that your 1 monthaversary thing with your book was September 7th because that was my 7 year anniversary =D it's the little shit 😅
Kat I know it's like super simple, bit I loved your word sprint's sheet! 😍
Haha chapter 48 sounds awesome! 😉 your progress is so motivating thx 😙
Idk if Starbucks works differently in California than it does in Illinois, but you should not be charged for soy milk if you're getting less than 8 oz (which a splash or light soy milk is). Don't order it as an Iced Coffee with milk, just get an Iced Coffee, sweetened/unsweetened with soy. Granted, you might like your soy more which is totally valid. I work at starbucks and use my own almond milk creamer for my drinks so...
i loveeeeee your writing videos! they are really inspiring! see you on MONDAY because weeks start on mondays!

This vlog is great. I can see how it can be stressful doing this and writing a book. So thanks, Katy.
You made me realize that I probably need to step my game up because I also set a deadline for myself. Which is Halloween and I started like the last week of September
