Financing your writing/what to pay for want not to pay for

Image
As a writer you don't need to spend that much when you begin all you want is a good amount of paper either a bulk of printing paper or a good sized notebook. I donlt like to spend the earth when it comes to note paper and pens the cheapest place is Poundland or even Wilkos. What you don't want to do is spend a load of publishing software and realise it isn't for you, I have bought software myself and used it a few times but not a lot and so it was a waste of money in the end. So the material I use is paper and pens and pencils as some writers like Dawn French for example write with pencil and paper still and don't bother with a computer or a laptop. Go through what you want to write. If it is blogs then again find a free platform like Wordpress, Weebly or google blogspot, where you can write a blog for free.

Bank Holiday Get Ready with me video/happy may day/Simple look

Hello and welcome! Happy May Day, I hope you have had a good Bank Holiday Monday so far. Here is a video I like to do, and that is a Get Ready with me video. I just did a simple look, and I love doing different looks. It really helps give me energy throughout the day, and is like a ritual for me. I don't put make up on all the time as I like to have my skin breath, but when I do I don't pile it on, just a simple look is perfect for me and not high maintenance at all. I am this week as of tomorrow going to do 3 Evening Skincare routines I like t do, and let me know products you use that you recommended that I should try, as I love recommendations. Many thanks, Carrie L.M Holmes

Day in a life Friday/Typical Friday/Content Creator/Blog writer/Author

Hello and welcome! It is the weekend and I needed it to be here too, and I filmed a Day in a life video yesterday as Fridays for me are the day where I will get any blogs done, do some videos pre-filmed for the weekend. It is where I will wind down and then plan for the weekend. Check out my video below: I love to have a different schedule for Fridays and I take it easier as I work from Monday to Sunday and that is what works for me, and you need to find what works for you. It may mean trying different methods, at first but when you do it gives you time to rest between tasks and its finding work balance as a writer as, I often full of ideas. Many thanks for reading and watching video, Carrie L.M X
