On Finishing A Book

[UTmouser1]

Read both Bran Hambrick books and loved them both! Now the 11yr old grandson is reading them and enjoying them. BTW - don't ever expect to get your life back if your are writing because other characters will come up and demand that you write about them, too.

[jimrot444]

hola, soy de Colombia y quisiera saber cual es tu estilo y cuando saldrá el tercer libro? gracias

[aisyvdsdsAda]

@WritingNerd2604 already an author mate. youngest pakistani author.

[germaineuchi]

do you have a literary agent? where did you found one? :)

[controlchick]

What's the word count for your Bran Hambric books? I'd love to know. :)

[aisyvdsdsAda]

Kaleb, Your awesome but...but u gotta get part 2 out... its been a year

[insperwriter]

How long does it take you to write your books? I really hope to read them soon! By the way, luv your videos!

[Cuenca20]

Can u explain plz why u work with 2 screens ?

[Booksareepic]

Is it just me who loves the sound of typing??

[SeanMKevolution]

is there going to be a third bran hambric book

[Mikkospace]

Uh, Kaleb, you said part 2 will be available "soon" 10 months ago. We're still kinda waiting....

[limeburst1]

I love the sound of computer keys. And Kaleb, if you pause it just a 30 you look drunk.

[limeburst1]

I love the sound of computer keys. 

[GreedLin]

I've done that before, No Publisher, but working on book 3

[Davo32795]

I have a question. how do think you feel once you are done with the Bran Hambric series? Will you cry? Do you have another series in mind once you're finished?

[TheWaffleTree]

I have the same pens!

[HPfanab08]

Congrats Kaleb! I can't wait to read it.

[Karenof4]

I saw this video back when you first posted it. Watched it today after reading about your e-book. (Congrats!) Never thought while watching this in January, I would have had a similar experience. *Unpublished, finishing up the first novel while already plotting out and working on the second* I hope the similarities don't stop there... :o)

[EmeryLafis]

is he saying Embry or Emery? D=

[TheTrollAmongUs]

@EmeryLafis He said Emry. She's the mother of the main protagonist of the Bran Hambric series, she shows up in the prologue of The Farfield Curse, the debut novel of the series.

[EmeryLafis]

@TheTrollAmongUs well... >_< it's close but at least it's not my name. It's pronounced the same though ;A;

[TheTrollAmongUs]

@EmeryLafis Hahaha, well, why do you think it's not good if Emry was your name?

[Joselitorv79]

Hey, just wanted to say. I'm another fan. Was wondering if there is a second part to this video. I enjoy that you allow us into your writing life.

:p

[TwilightCloude]

I get so many book ideas, and plot them out to prepare for actually writing one. At the moment i am working on my first novel, not mentioning the name, but I feel like I can actually do this. I'm very excited, its really difficult writing a novel. But, its something I love. Do much more of these videos, they inspire me (:

[TheAdventuresofTime]

I only have six more chapters until I finish my very first novel! This video has helped me alot in preparing myself for how emotional it'll be for me.

[AliceCullenIsMyHero]

no way! >_< we have the same microsoft word program XD

[mrtheluckybucket]

@CodrutzzzG dude ALL fantasy books seem simalar...kaleb made one of the greatest books of all time.....n ur just tryen 2 out him down

[bugnsun12]

Hey Kaleb Im barley wrting my story i already send you a video resopnce with the book trailer!

[bugnsun12]

@CodrutzzzG Like really dude read the book before you say something to the author! In harry potter their is no Mr. Rat or a charater like him! Also harry potter goes to a school for magic! Bran Doesnt. Also Bran is a mage not a wut ever harry potter is! So yeah dude read the book before u say something to the author! Omg Da ja voe

[yayx3bs]

i didn't even read your books yet, but it's on my books to read list. My friend bought it at the school book fair, and she said it was really good. Can't wait to read it! ;)

[connork819]

i couldnt wait to buy your novel u shood visit uk bristol

[t260y]

was there ever a part two? Ahh, he's probable working on it. lol, my typing matched up with kaleb when I was writing this, sweet!

[BugEyedPirate]

I remember when I finished my first novel (after 4 years!) I was stunned. I'm half way through rewriting my second. Finishing will be totally weird.

This video is so beautiful. And I loved the first book, you're an amazing writer. I can't wait until The Spector Key comes out. (Fall '10, get here already!)

[bugnsun12]

ok what publisher did you send you first book too? Also is it true you have to pay for it to be published? to:KalebNation

[headintheclouds22]

You have stunning teeth. I know its irrelevant here but i just realized how white they are- thumbs up for good oral hygiene. xx

[Theo2kitty]

im a HUGE HARRY POTTER fan, love the books dearly, and when i read Bran Hambric, i didn't see any similarities, at all, that may just be me. what if i wrote a story about a boy going through a mirror to another world is it going to be similar to alice in wonderland? trust alot of us origionality is hard to come up with these days. but agian i see no close relationship of Bran to Harry. GO KALEB!!!

[Theo2kitty]

@Theo2kitty oops ment down a hole to another world.

[PhantomCyborg]

@Theo2kitty Hey, you where not thinking of writing a story about a boy going through a mirror to another world where you? Because you sort of just gave me an idea for a novel.

[Theo2kitty]

@PhantomCyborg lol no. Hey, I'm also writing a novel (fiction) I'm not going to use the "mirror to another world" though, I'm using something else. :) It's all yours! xD

[PhantomCyborg]

@Theo2kitty Thanks for the inspiration! :)

[Theo2kitty]

@PhantomCyborg No problem. :)

[Theo2kitty]

@kalebnation your first book in the series was great i finished it in about....6 days! CAN'T WAIT to follow Bran in the second instalment ( i don't think i spelled that last word correctly)....anyway, like the vlogs and rants. :)

[NightPersonified]

I can't imagine how I'm going to react when I finish my book. I think I might cry in excitement. lol

[zackfair73195]

I know how you feel.

[TheCGIMaster]

@NightPersonified

I did... Awkward...

[NightPersonified]

@TheCGIMaster lol

[littlemissdeisher]

You're incredible Kaleb!

:D

[marieantoinettechick]

Sorry to sound like a creeper, but I love the color of your eyes. :D

[SecretDimension]

I need to see more stuff like this from you!

[STITCH76576]

What's up with all the mean comments!? Not cool!

[AdrienneFrailey]

Kaleb, I love your new camera. You should DEFINITELY put together a short film with it...... you know, when you have some free time. (<<<lol, that's a laugh, isn't it?) But seriously, I think you'd do a good job with something like that.

[zazman612]

when are you going to be doing part two?

[cappygurl352]

Ughh , everyone's being so RUDE, I actually read Kaleb's book, the first one of the Farfield Curse, and loved it! But I don't see why these trolls are even on here, if you don't like his books so much--I bet he's not even trying to have his books similar to Harry Potter; I read nothing about hippogriffs and magically brewing cauldrons!

[anilugb]

i want to read you're book i love u're videos am i think u're really creative can i buy it on internet 'cause i'm from mexico i don't know if is avaible in here !

please i love this cain of books!

[badassbella101]

What's with all these rude comments on Bran Hambric? I loved this book, and absolutely can't wait for the sequel! Why can't people just recognize a great book when they see one?

[CodrutzzzG]

I mean, I respect you very much, I have as well a lot of ideas for books to write myself, and you had this opportunity and had your help and you succeed it. That's why I respect you, but to prove myself wrong I will read the book when I will have the chance. I am from Romania, and I guess that Bran Hambric is not available here. :)

[OfficialSammi]

when's part two gonna happen?

[kalebnation]

Soon. I'm working on it!

--Kaleb

[OfficialSammi]

GREAT!;D because i want to get into writing myself and these videos really interest me!

x

[Ursunshine247]

Kaleb i think its amazing youre almost finished! i cant wait to hear your thoughts put to paper.. it will be so cool kaleb u are amazing =D

-Danielle , Ireland.x

[MadV237]

When is part two coming out? Stop making idiotic, and rather pointless videos and let's get some good stuff man. I love your videos and your success; but truth be told you're disappointing me and some of your other viewers with these other newly uploaded videos.

Perhaps some educational and meaningful videos (like this one) should be made soon. I know it would make a few writers happy :-)

[Kristiekins2]

He's just having fun. Frankly, those "idiotic, an rather pointless videos" are what gain him a lot of his fans. I just enjoy his videos in general, and I don't really care what he does. If you are so "disappointed" maybe you shouldn't watch the videos. Maybe you should just unsubscribe. Why are you speaking for "other viewers" anyway? Do you know for a fact that others feel the same way as you?

PS. Just because you end a post with a happy face, doesn't change the fact that you're a jerk. :-)

[kalebnation]

@MadV237 I'm working on part 2. It takes time. Also, I have 42,000 other subscribers that I like to entertain, who happen to enjoy the 'idiotic, and rather pointless' videos. They come here for fun stuff, not me talking about my book all the time.

By the way, you have interesting videos :-)

--Kaleb

[lyla951217]

Wow, you are a dolt. I actually rather enjoy his "idiotic, and rather pointless videos." I like when people share their opinion about videos, but saying your opinion is shared by other people, that's when it is not appreciated. Considering I sometimes get bored with Bran Hambric videos, I think it's safe to say your opinion is slightly off-base.

[OneInsaneAngel]

Was that a ceaser box  :43???

[natneagle]

I loved this video! How exciting. Amazing editing!

[CrazyGirl418]

That was a pretty awesome video. Looked very professional. :)

[InuSakuraNaruto]

my gawd, kaleb, you make AWESOME videos

[KellenTheGreat]

So when can I pre-order TSK? :D

[LisaScreamed]

That was freaking awesome, Kaleb. Fo' sho'.

[LopsidedDream]

[iibAnne]

Yah. And it looks awsomee :)

[OomChaOomCha]

Holy Creedleshnosh,

[Simsfangirl255]

[badassbella101]

you were right to sell your old camera (saw it on twitter), and I love your new one!! I swear, it looks AMAZING. Can't wait for part 2!

[Crushn421]

Rocking that shallow depth of field in your shots Kaleb.. nice. :)

[iamspunkransom]

R.I.P Beardtard. Haha.

This camera quality is LEGIT.

[MaxRide95]

CRAZY INSANE QUALITY. All the better to see you with, my pretty. Hehe. (Wait, did I just combine Little Red Riding Hood with Wizard of Oz? 0_o) You are just an all around great person, Kaleb. Can't wait for TSK! =)

[insanecorrot95]

congrats,i kno this is really random but u have super white teeth and really purrrrdddyyyy eyes *-*

[VicciVicious]

Also, during TFC I kept wondering about Bran's father. I kept thinking that somehow you would reveal that Shambles was his father or something. I just recently finished your first book, and I am excited to see your next work. I loved it, and know you will only get better and more polished as you continue chasing your dreams and imagining big.

[VicciVicious]

Wow! did you record this w/ your new camera? you dd a really great job. i like all the different angles and the way it seems like an interview. bravo good sir.

[thornfang]

what kind of camera did you use to shoot this? the quality is amazing

[sweetdreamsforever1]

Pity your first book hasn't come out in Ireland yet, I'd love to read it. :)

[nanin146]

@sweetdreamsforever1 His book is not out here in Malaysia as well. But I received a package from my brother (who's in the US) and he sent me Bran Hambric! So exciting :D

[jomellarella]

this is amazing kaleb! the quality is fantasmic! what camera do you use????

[olivia6101]

[Elmoette47]

I appreciate all the work and effort you put into your books. You could really be a great rolemodel one day.

[hptwilighter]

Very well put together. I'm really excited to read TSK

[borax38]

Congratulations on finishing the book!

[tigerlily003]

haha raisin bran

great job though, you're an inspiration

[leonyx86]

Hey Kaleb, you mind not destroying our earth in a hurry and getting a water filter and sigg bottle or a glass? You'd think a critical mind would be a bit more conscious about those types of things.

[AlyxMazY]

Wow! This vid is so well done. Great job Kaleb.

[xxdalia1226xx]

Kaleb, Kaleb, Kaleb, shame on you was that a RED BULL i saw in 1:47?? lol

[miguel8351]

im going to ask for your books in my schools library!

if they do buy them then your book will be the first book i read, i know kind of sad at age sixteen.

[rockstarchick247]

This almost makes me want to cry. The first vid of yours I ever saw was the one where you got your first copies of The Farfield Curse. It gives me hope that someday I'll find someone to publish my books too. I've written three so far and its great to see that it can really happen. Thanx Kaleb. xD

[kingb013]

such a professional looking video; i loved the intro :D woop Kaleb!

[Jessliz55]

wow this video is so nice to look at aesthetically, you really have an eye for details

[passionate18]

CONGRAAATS KALEB!!! Cant wait to read it =D

[estripe4]

Kaleb I am so proud of you! Keep up the amazing work and I know that the second Bram book will rock just like the first one did! Loved the video! It was awesome!

[twilightaddict08]

You are my idol. I absolutely admire you. I write some stories myself, but I have trouble fully developing them. Maybe someday I will actually finish something and be able to share it with the world. I hope I will be lucky enough to meet you one day. :)

[cheezymouse297]
