 Hey guys, it's Julia and welcome back to my channel and for today's video I'm going to be doing a video talking about my booktube Slash kind of reading goals for the year of 2018 So first off starting with channel goals I have if you haven't done my feedback survey already. It's in linked at the top of the description box So please do it if you feel like it. I don't know. I think surveys are fun But if you have any opinions on my channel make sure to fill that survey out It just helps me and I like kind of hearing your guys's opinions and things like that But through that survey, I want to make adjustments in the new year. So Uh, I'm gonna keep up the weekly vlogs hopefully or at least do bi-weekly vlogs Or at least try to incorporate more reading vlogs because the majority of you guys love them So I'm gonna try to fit those in more and also Some of you guys said you want to see more individual book reviews for me. So my goal is to do two a month And things like that. I also want to keep up my usual two to three videos a week If not more but for the new year two to three a week would be my goal I think these are pretty doable for me I'm gonna have a separate video about my book to my reading bucket list for the year and like some rereads and stuff like that But for this video, I just wanted to talk about again some of my channel goals And then just some basic standard reading goals But I found it really interesting looking back on the survey that a lot of you guys were actually Quiet viewers. So I put this question there that was like, are you interactive or kind of more of a quiet viewer? Because I know for me watching certain people's videos, especially was not when I wasn't making videos I never commented on people's videos. I never like Talked to them on other social media platforms because I thought it like I was like why Like I don't want to talk to anyone and I was just kind of this quiet Watcher in the corner sort of thing So I was I was wondering like how many people really enjoy my videos But don't comment or don't like them or whatever So the survey I believe was like a solid 70% of you guys are more quiet viewers than you are interactive Which was really interesting to me and I encourage you guys to comment if you want to if you have your opinions on something I would love to hear them And yeah, but that was really interesting to me because I definitely used to be more a quiet viewer for a lot of people And even now I still don't comments on every video I watch just because sometimes I don't want to say Like I love the video, but I'm like what am I supposed to say great video like they have like 30 comments that say that So yeah, okay upload two three times a week keep up with the vlogs and then there's going to be a new intro and outro song every month Um, I know some of you guys especially this month are really liking the intro song Which I'm really happy about that, but I do change it up every month just to Spice things up same with my outro the design changes and the song changes every month But my intro which was made by ali her links are down below as well She made it but I change up the color in the music every single month. So that's going to be continuing Along with that also you guys probably don't care about my thumbnails the little uh Color behind the words that changes every month as well Just so I can add a glance I can see how many videos I upload in a month I'm hoping to do two review book review two video book review the month I'm also hoping to do again I'm going to be continuing with my monthly wrap ups and then I'm thinking about either monthly tbrs or Seasonal tbrs. I think would be really interesting And also you guys requested more uh recommendations videos from my recommendation series that I have on my channel Which I have a playlist for but a lot of you guys requested more of that So I will be trying to bring more of those to the table and if you have any ideas for What kind of genre or what kind of this you'd like to see for recommendations videos. Let me know down below I've done quite a bit of them. I think 20 But yeah, I'd love to know in the comments And then I'm still going to be doing I'm hoping to actually do my monthly favorites every month, but maybe Film like whatever my favorite is maybe fill more bits of it Just make it a little more fun and creative and more like I can look back on that month and see What I kind of did that month. So not just my favorite things, but what kind of happened that month I would like to do just to look back on So yeah, those are some of my reading my booktube goals my channel goals also I mean if we're talking numbers, I don't really want to Set a number But I guess my goal for the year would be like 10. Okay, that would be cool I mean honestly when I had 100 subs I was like crying so It was really surprising to me how fast my channel has grown in the past six months. I think So we're getting close to 8k. So thank you guys so much. It means so much to me So I guess my goal for 2018 would be 10k just because I think that's a solid number To be at I don't know. I just like that. It's a you know, round it up kind of thing And then for two little reading goals a month I want to get back into my classical month. So I did start that In the year, but then I kind of just stopped so I'm hoping to get back to my Don't knock things over Julia to my classic a month. That would be really nice. Um, I do want to make a Effort to read more of them and I also want to do a Stephen King book a month So this is just going to be spontaneous for me Just so I can read through all the king stuff because I literally get message every single day Messages every single day asking me if I've read this Stephen King by this Stephen King So I'm hoping to read more of them and I do have a ton of them. So I'm hoping to make an effort to read at least one a month Also with that, I'm still going to be continuing to do my read-a-thon a month, which I've Basically done this whole year. Um, I've already done a month. I think it's fun I guess the community together. So things like that are my reading and channel goals I hope you guys enjoyed this video Let me know your overall thoughts in the comments down below Or if you have any requests for the new year, I think you'd like to add about my channel anything like that Let me know down below because this video is about my channel, which of course the viewers are a huge part of So yes, let me know down below. Thank you guys so much for watching and I'll see you guys tomorrow with a new Vlogmas video. Bye
