"Waddup all of my MVP's and welcome back to my channel"
… is something I’ve gotten accustomed to saying over my two- year span on YouTube. For those of you who have been following me since I stood teetering from 30-50 YouTube subscribers or for those of you who poked around my website, you’ll know that I have been servicing the online poetry community with tips and advice on how to write poetry. Starting out, I didn’t know how much time it would actually take to make a YouTube video. As like many of you, I thought it was just as easy as turning on the camera and speaking but I didn’t expect how difficult it could be to speak to a lens of a camera and visualize real-life people on the other side listening. I also didn’t account for how hard planning and filming a video would be while studying for my Masters simultaneously. And if this wasn’t enough, I had to learn the heating schedule of my pre-war apartment so I wouldn’t be having a sing-off with my radiator. Because of this, I only produced about 5 videos in 2017.
