Chapters
Learn how I self-edit my book, and make choices about which comments to listen to, and which comments not to when making an editing plan. In this video, I share one chapter of a book I wrote, share my real beta reader comments, and take you along as I edit the chapter in real-time, giving you my authentic reactions and thought process. This is the first video I’ve made like this on the channel, and the writing is still rough, but I wanted to give you a glimpse into my brain and writing process, bringing you behind the curtain so you can understand how I make decisions when it comes to taking feedback and improving my work. I used Story Origin to manage my beta readers, and absolutely LOVED it. I can't recommend Story Origin highly enough. - Subscribe to my channel for weekly videos sharing actionable writing tips that helped me improve as a writer. 🎬 VIDEOS YOU WILL LIKE: Deep dive into EDEN’S CHARACTER (how I’m going to change her after getting feedback): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F04cW0zJyxk How I used STORY ORIGIN to collect beta reader feedback: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd4tY-VFRxU SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/c/WritewithClaireFraise πŸ‘» READ THEY STAY (book 1 in my paranormal thriller series and won the Grand Prize at the 2023 Writer’s Digest Self Published Book Awards): Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/They-Stay-Suspenseful-Young-Mystery/dp/1737225301/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=claire+fraise%27&qid=1628649544&sr=8-1 Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/they-stay-claire-fraise/1139953490?ean=9781737225300 Add on GOODREADS: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/57821402-they-stay JOIN MY MAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3zFpz0l πŸ˜€ CONNECT WITH ME: MAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3zFpz0l EMAIL ME: [email protected] WEBSITE: https://www.clairefraise.com/​​​​​​ TIKTOK (where I’m most active other than YouTube): https://www.tiktok.com/@clairefraiseauthor?_t=ZP-90cwafzkR5z&_r=1 INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/clairefraiseauthor/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/clairefraiseauthor PINTEREST: https://www.pinterest.com/clairefraisebooks/ GOODREADS: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/14193771.Claire_Fraise ABOUT: Hi, I'm Claire! I’m an award-winning self-published author of paranormal thriller books (my book "They Stay" won the Grand Prize at the 2023 Writer's Digest Self-Published Book Awards and is the first in a five-book series). There is no one way to write a book. I’m a strong believer that the only way to develop your own writing process is by trying a bunch of different methods to find out what is the most helpful to you. In my videos, I share how I approach every stage in my writing process, from brainstorming to editing, in the hope that it could give you something to try that could help you level up as a writer. I share techniques that have improved my own writing so you can see if the same strategies help you. CHAPTERS:
