Now as I mentioned in last week's writerly Wednesday post, I have decided I
need a Youtube channel. So I have been thinking about it all week and trying
to plan, which involved a lot of watching Youtube vids on how to set up a
Youtube channel etc. π
First of all I had to decide what I wanted to put on it and this is what I
have come up with so far:
- Story narration
- Novel excerpt narration
- Book trailers and other Wittegen Press news vids
Other suggestions of things you might like to see, gratefully accepted.
Then I made a list of all the content I already have to choose from, well
actually I made a Google Sheet (so useful). Turns out I have over 100
sources to choose from. And that doesn't include the naughtier stories,
which I can't put up because Youtube does not like adult content.
In all honesty I don't have a strategy completely worked out yet, but I am
plotting.
One thing I did decide is that my focus is going to be on the narration, with
other things as additions, because I think that is what might bring in an
audience. So I brainstormed for a Youtube channel name and came up with...
So far I have a channel art, an icon and 2 subscribers, both of whom are other accounts I own, but we all have to start somewhere, down't we π.
Next I need to come up with:
- The about section
- A plan of attack so I can get the content prepared.
Apparently I need 100 subscribers and have had the channel for 30 days before I can get my proper URL. πSo if you feel like subscribing to a completely empty channel, that would be awesome - thank you.π I promise there will be content.
Do any of you have a YouTube channel? What content do you put on it? Any tips? Drop me a link so I can check it out.
New Release Day
Yesterday was new release day over at VirginiaWaytes.com (my alter ego) with:
Josh is gone, but there is still hope to find him, even with the pack bond occluded to be useless. His connection to Pippa may be the answer and she and Lucy must work together to launch a dangerous rescue mission.
Awesome - I shall search for you.
