#57 - Started livestream vlogs

2024/7/16 Tuesday

Notes from my stream of consciousness writing #119

  • It’s been almost a month since my last stream-of-consciousness writing. The reason I’m writing this is because Austin Kleon in the book Keep Going said he handwrites journals every morning and he also said to read them regularly to see what you pay attention to.
  • Started livestream vlogging yesterday, partly because I miss having a record of daily videos I can look back on and partly because of what Austin Kleon said that I mentioned above. One thing I’ll miss is that there’s no Mochi the dog and Tigger the cat montage at the end. Maybe I’ll watch them on my screen at the end to show them?
  • I don’t think I’ll monetize livestream vlogs. People hate ads, Nicolas Cole said in his book, The Art and Business of Online Writing. Plus my vlogs will hardly get any views anyways.
  • Am I going to write online? I mean not just on my blog but on some social media platform. I don’t know if it’s worth the extra time when my focus is YouTube.
