I am making videos again!


I’ve always loved making videos. Not because I love being on camera, but I really enjoy putting together jokes and stories and tutorials (etc) with video as a medium. The moment I had the ability to plug a camera into a computer back in the early 2000s, I was making videos.

But, I’ve not really been consistent about it. I didn’t make many videos regularly in high school and college (outside of some lip sync videos I’ll let you find on your own, heh). The most consistent I’ve been was when I got really into TikTok and weekly streaming on Twitch in the height of the pandemic, which was fun. The accessibility of making videos with those mediums made me fall in love with it again.

After having a kiddo, I admit I kind of lost the mental energy to make short-form videos regularly again, and lost my appetite for live-streaming on Twitch. Momentum is hard. After coming back from my second maternity leave though, I somehow found a spark again! I don’t really know what it was, but I’ve decided to try. I haven’t really leaned into making longer form (as in, longer than a minute) videos before outside of online courses, so I’m working on that muscle, and bringing back livestreaming!

I’m streaming weekly on Twitch again, on Thursdays at 12:30 Pacific/2:30 Central, and (re?)starting up my YouTube channel!

I’ve been doing it for a few weeks now, and I’m having a lot of fun. So, that being said… please like and subscribe? LOL.
