I'm so sorry I haven't been active on YouTube lately! (Especially to my friends I'm so so sorry please dont hate me if I haven't really been on your channels much lately or showing my support ik it probably feels idc abt you but I really do I've just been so occupied that I've barely had time to be on yt please forgive me)
I've been working on my book, which I need your help with!
First let me tell you what the purpose of my book really is.
I want teenagers or even adults idk, who are struggling with life right now to feel understood. I'm gonna guess that a lot of you reading this have probably felt alone or maybe just straight up hated yourself. Maybe you've felt that your feelings aren't valid because "there's worse going on in the world" (btw I'm not saying that there isn't but that doesn't invalidate your feelings!!!) Maybe you've had people close to you leave you. Maybe you've been bullied.(maybe bc ur queer, maybe bc ur a nerd, maybe bc ur different or/and many many other reasons)- my point is you feel alone.
What I want to do with my book (although it can't solve everything) is to make people like that feel like they can relate to something. I want them to feel less lonely. I want them to know other people are the same.
I'm guessing many (probably all) of you reading this have been part of a fandom. Maybe pjo, epic, heartstopper, idk. Anyway my point is, do you remember what it felt like when you joined that special fandom if yours. What it felt like when you could relate to the character.
Maybe I'm just being dramatic but that was me with pjo. When I first read the books I wasn't in my best state of mind(this is kinda a mini truama dump, I'm sorry for that.) However having those characters, having that community of people who I could relate to helped, and a lot.
I wanna help others feel that too.
However, I can only do that with people who have lived my experience. I cannot speak for everyone when I write my book. If i do it alone.
As you saw I have used the word maybe alot while writing this. That is because everyone is different and in order to make many people feel understood I need many different peoples stories. I need people from different backgrounds, genders, sexualitys, experiences etc.
That is where you come in.
I would be very grateful if you could tell me your life story. What I mean by this is just tell me about you. Tell me what you wish you had/want to see other people talk about. Stuff that you wish you could find in media and feel seen. That type of stuff.
⚠️IF YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE!!!!!!! I CAN'T STRESS THIS ENOUGH IK THAT PEOPLE'S STORIES AND EXPERIENCES AND TRUAMA ARE VERY VERY CONFIDENTIAL AND PERSONAL SO IF YOU DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE SHARING THAT TO ME PLEASE DO NOT!!!⚠️
If you do please tell me your pinterest or discord (I have both) in the comments so we can talk. (Please don't just tell me in the comments because again that stuff is very personal!)
I would appreciate if you could share this post so it can get more people! (If you can't that's totallyfine!)
Also about my editing and channel I might stop posting edits for a while so I can focus on my life(I'm not quiting or taking a break just dont expect a edit every day!) so if I'm in your bote or mep I'm so so so sorry but I'm dropping out!
If you feel like this post is in anyway disrespectful/hurtful or just not something I shouldn't post please tell me so I can take it down immediately!
Thank you so much for reading this. I know its really long but I hope you have a wonderful day/night/afternoon. <3
