Hey, hey Bloodlings! 🩸🩸🩸💉💉💉

I hope you're happy, healthy, and wealthy!

I don't know if you saw my Instagram post earlier today, but I was Today-Years-Old when I learned you have to have fifty (50) subscribers on YouTube before you can livestream. Ridiculous, right?

The thing is, I only have eight (8) followers right now. For the most part, I don't know who they are, but I'm so glad they've subscribed before I've even figured out what to do with the channel.

I would love to livestream trying out recipes from the Danube region with y'all! I was planning to do this tomorrow around 2:00 or 3:00 PM, you know, chat with y'all about fun facts and ideas for my books while trying out recipes from the area majority of my characters originate from. I could also talk about other things, like my writing degree, writing tips, character development, etc. But YouTube, like Instagram, foiled my plans. Mainly YouTube though since that's the platform contracted with BackerKit.

So I can't livestream unless y'all to hit that subscribe button on my YouTube channel.

I promise this isn't a trap. Hitting the subscribe button is completely free, takes about three (3) seconds, and I promise not to flood your notifications with random videos of my cat (unless, of course, you want cat videos?) or other unwanted spam. I mean, even if you take a look at the page now, you'll see most of the videos are from 2022 and 2023, and that I've only recently begun to add other things to the channel. After all, my go to for most of my posts is Instagram. But I digress. 

The privilege of being among the first fifty (50) people to witness whatever chaos I decide to livestream. And, trust me, there will be plenty of chaos. That chaos could be art, could be cooking/baking disasters, could be me trying to figure out how livestreaming works. Who knows?

One thing is for sure though: It's going to be an adventure for all of us!

So, here's my promise to you:

I won't spam you, I won't send you thousands of notifications, and you probably won't receive much information about the channel outside my BackerKit campaigns (and I'm using plural becuase I have faith you'll continue supporting my projects.) when I tell you I have a new livestream happening.

All you'll recieve from me is good vibes and the knowledge that you helped me reach a simple goal of hitting YouTube's minimum follower count.

Thanks for being awesome, and sorry for the shameless self-promotion! Promise I'll make it up to you with quality content... eventually. 

XOXO
