Helllo and welcome to another Project Tea Cup vlog! Come write a novel with me as I cafe hop around Tokyo. I'm currently working on a fantasy novel, and I'm about to kick off draft four of the story (which is the final draft of the book!). It was a really, lovely, self indulgent way to work--I worked out of some beautiful cafes and loved getting the opportunity to show you around Tokyo as well. Thank you so much for watching ๐Ÿ’›

  • There's nothing wrong with treating yourself to something nice. If you have the financial capacity to do so, just do it. Life is hectic enough as it is. As always, great video!
  • Sounds person here! sometimes microphones and speakers can pick up radio signals - it could be something in the internal fibers of your microphone or one of your audio cables. It's usually based on the area you're recording in!
  • The visual of Starbucks selling rotisserie chickens is so funny to me lol

    I love working in cafes! Co-working and body doubling helps me focus. And libraries can be a bit cavernous and cold sometimes, cafes are cosy and have built-in asmr of china clinks and lofi music and murmuring conversation. I appreciate the qualifier that money doesn't need to be spent to be productive - very important, but also if you do have the money for it, it's not extravagant and it's very human โœจ๐ŸŒ™โœจ

    This cafe looks so cute and cozy ๐Ÿฅน
  • @ReadingNymph
    We all need a day to treat ourselves. Either buying a new book or going to a fancy cafe. This was a lovely video โ™ก
  • @xkiruo
    Recently subscribed to your channel and I find your vlogs really cosy but also really motivating! Seeing you work on your novel makes me want to work on mine and finally complete a draft for once. So excited to watch this vlog, I hope to go to Japan one day too and that you have a great time there. Thanks for all the effort and time you put into your videos (and for sharing your process with us while youโ€™re on vacation too!). โค
  • I love what you said about people feeling like they need to look aesthetically pleasing while making art/writing. I do feel like this is because of social media and artists also having to content create and put that pretty picture forward which isnโ€™t reality. Lovely vlog. And so glad you treated yourself. โค
  • Such a lovely and relaxing vlog! Now I want to have a day in Tokyo cafes too ~ Writing a book is actually one of my dreams, your videos are really inspiring!โคโคโค
  • You're so sweet. I loved the vlog and didn't not feel you splurged. You deserve some esthetically pleasing places to recharge and be a creative.
  • @kellimbt
    I loved this! It's great to see what I call a 'cute day' like this, because you're right that it's not always feasible.
  • @clarejean3309
    yay! A new one! I love these so much! I'm taking a break from my fallen angel since writing the first book in my notebook physically and mentally drained me out. But I'll get to it when I feel up to it. As always great video!
  • @SteveJubs
    I always have to max out my video quality whenever I watch your vlogs because I just know the production value is going to be absolutely off the charts
  • @MEmneina
    As a viewer from the USA, I canโ€™t help but think the matcha in Japan must hit on a million other levels. Yummmm
  • I just wanted to say I love your writing vlogs. I am also an aspiring writer and am currently working on a fantasy novel and memoir.โคโคโคโคโค๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š
  • I'm learning how to make vlogs by watching your videos ๐ŸคŽ
  • @Verityrowley
    Tokyo's cafe culture is top tier! Makes me want to go back. Finding the right cafe to write in is essential lol ๐Ÿ‘€ what a shame if you have to visit a few ๐Ÿคญ
  • @seancullen454
    seeing you post a video about novel-writing just filled my novel-writing heart with such joy :D it's been so inspiring to see you continue with your novel-writing journey with endurance and passion for what you do
  • Thanks for sharing, love your videos! Sorry if you already have a video like this, but if not, can you make one where you show us what programs you use for writing, editing, and annotating your work?
  • @bookstore3865
