 What's shaking, booktube? My name's Cam. Welcome back to another video. Today's video isn't actually about me. Devastating. I know. So I'm gonna keep it brief, but I just wanted to kind of reflect a bit on when I started out on booktube and authortube. When I started out, I was lucky enough to make a few friends and get a few shoutouts that kind of boosted me. In fact, I imagine a lot of you watching may have found me through other people. I was lucky enough for that to happen, and now I'm lucky enough to have a platform of like over 11,000 subscribers, which is still just crazy to me. And it's with that in mind that it is my absolute pleasure, my absolute honor today to introduce you to some fantastic people. But rather than me just telling you why I think they're great, I think I'm gonna let them use my platform here to introduce themselves. I'm not telling you to go subscribe, but at least hear them out, maybe check out their channels, and I think that much will say a lot more than I ever could. Take it away, guys. Talk about bookish videos. I am going to be doing a little bit of stuff on the side where I talk about some Asian dramas I watch and Star Trek and things like that. Most of the bookish stuff I talk about has to do with the types of genres I like to read, which is anything historical fiction, nonfiction, biographies. I also love fantasy, YA, science fiction, stuff along those lines. I do talk about Bahamian culture, language, and history, and those videos will be on my channel as well. If you like, check it out. Bye. Hi, everyone. My name is Ben from Ben Reads Books, and I'm a sci-fi and fantasy writer who also has a booktube channel. Normally what you'll see on the channel is reviews from sci-fi and fantasy with a little bit of a literary fiction thrown in. The reason why is because I want to talk about all the books that have helped me and influenced me as a writer and has really, really developed my craft along the way. Within the channel, you'll be able to find reviews from different genres, writing tips, and me documenting my journey as I try to build the ultimate goal of owning a publishing house. And I want you to see every single step of the way, whether it be me taking editorial classes, talking to different people in the industry, I want you to see it all. So, this is my channel, and I'm Ben from Ben Reads Books, and I hope you have a fantastic day. And if you're interested, take a look. I hope to see you soon. Bye for now. Stick around, and something wonderful might happen. Or something awful. Hi, I'm Olivia here from Olivia's Catastrophe. I love to talk about books and travel on my channel. I talk about pretty much every kind of genre. I love to read all sorts of genres. I love to read all age audiences going from middle grade to young adult to adult. So you'll definitely see a conundrum of things. Usually I like to travel as much as I can and do reading vlogs while I travel. I've started a new series on my channel, which is called Read It Backwards, where I read some of my favorite series backwards and tell you about my experience doing so. And we just love to talk books and make sure that we are having a lot of fun doing so over there. So I hope to see you there. Hey everyone, I'm Zoe from Zoe's All Booked, which used to be called Your Booking Your Zoe. My favorite genres are adult fantasy and adult romance, but really I'll read anything that's not horror or nonfiction. Horror because I'm a little bitch. Nonfiction puts me right to sleep. On my channel we like to have a lot of fun, a lot of shenanigans. I have a cat, a dog, and a two-month-old that pop up in my videos often. Recently I brought back what I like to call dramatic readings, which are exactly what they sound like. I dramatically read the synopsis of a book and make a complete fool out of myself for the enjoyment of the wider world. There's the cat. I like to keep it real on my channel. I just filmed a video in a onesie, so if you're into that and you're into a lot of swearing, come check out my channel and say hi to Draco. Bubsy, can you say hi? He hates me, it's fine. I don't have a cat hair all in my mouth now. The novel I hear from her is Eva Sanders. I am a book blogger and host of an author interviewing Instagram live series, as well as a freelance cinematic style book trailer creator for authors all around the world. I post my writing webinars on my YouTube channel as well as my author interviews, the book trailers I've created, and other writing tips. I also am going to be documenting my self-publishing journey as a debut self-publishing author of a young adult thriller named The Beckwith Brothers. The Beckwith Brothers is a young adult thriller about teen angst, forbidden romance, secret societies, and murder all intertwining in three mysterious brothers return home to their small town, Halloween night 1995. So be sure to subscribe, add the novelette, see these videos, and more. Thank you all so much. Stay safe and stay well. Bye. Hey, it's me, Renny B, and for my channel, you will see all things YA in middle grade. I like, I write middle grade, so that's why I read middle grade. That's why you will see middle grade. Anyways, I like fantasy, mystery, thriller, rom-com, so it's a big variety. I chat it up, I make cool little short films, fun little videos, so it's a big variety. Come onto my channel. It's fun. So, hello all. My name is Aphrodite Lee, and I'm an author. While even now, saying it out loud is still unreal to me, but it is true. I wrote a book. Wait, wait, I wrote two books. No. I wrote dozens of books, but I published two books. There you go. And so I can't wait to share like the rest of them with you all. My main concentration is New Adult Paranormal Fantasy. That's how I roll. Now, of course, if you are familiar with the two books that I've already published, you know I also delve into other territories. But my main jam is fantasy. That's just, I'm a fantasy girl. On my channel, I mainly share my process, and I try to have fun while doing it. I also do a lot of silly stuff because for some reason I'm highly addicted to tags. Every time I see a new tag, I'm like on it. I need therapy. I do. I realize this. The reason I started my channel though, because I wanted to like track my process and then also share my process at the same time. And I hoped that anything that I did would inspire other people in some kind of way, no matter what. Just looking at my madness and seeing like, hey, well, I can do this if she did it kind of thing. One of my deepest goals has always been to be the person that I need it. So I hope that that's what comes across the most on my channel. Also, writing is lonely. Writing is hard. And I wanted to find people who were like me, who were doing the same thing so that I could have like some buddies. So I started it for selfish and unselfish reasons. I love being a part of altitude. I love it. It literally changed my life. It changed my life. So if you want to learn more about me, come to my channel and hang out for a little while. I would love to meet you. Until then, remember this, you hold the power as long as you are driven. Hey, everyone, my name is Aspacia, but you might know me better as Asparagus is reading. My channel is mostly about books, but you might find a few videos I'll talk about other things such as bullet journaling, college, plants, video games like Sims and Halo, or things about my dog or really just anything that I'm interested at the moment. I am currently uploading every Friday at 10 a.m. Eastern Central Time. I do occasionally upload on other days such as Monday and Wednesday if I have any vlogs or like other videos I need to get out at a certain time. I definitely think that you all should check out some of my videos because there's been some wild stuff happening, some changes going on. There's been some laughs, some jokes, some new things that I'm planning for the future. I think it'll be a lot of fun for me and also anyone that is watching and participating. So if you're interested in that, go ahead and check it out. And I can't wait to, you know, meet some of you, hang out with some of you, talk with some of you in the comments. I know my channel is pretty small. I just recently hit foreign subscribers, but I do hope that if I continue with this, you know, like new ideas, staying motivated, uploading weekly, having fun, doing all different types of things, communicating with all of you guys. I definitely think there is an opportunity for growth and to have more fun and just to get to other places with it. So if you guys have any ideas or anything at all or just want to hang out, please feel free to do so. And yeah, thank you guys for watching this clip and supporting all these wonderful YouTubers. We all definitely deserve it. And I will see you guys hopefully in another video. Bye. Hi, Cam. Thank you so much for having me. Thank you to everyone who's watching this video and giving me a little bit of your time. I appreciate you. My name is Tamara Woods and I talk about books and writing on my channel, which is named Tamara Woods and very creative. One of the things that I really like to do with my channel is to figure out ways to connect with the community. Each week I host a live stream right in on my channel every Thursday, 2pm Eastern, and we write stuff and we chat and we have a good time. On a monthly basis, I do writer's workshop where myself and a group of friends, we talk about a book that the Goodreads group picks. It's a nonfiction writing book. And if you were looking forward to going to some writing events and they've been canceled because the beverage bug has destroyed us in 2020, I have a free offer for you. My friends, Cara Brown, Cache Warren, Dana Gallant and myself created Evergreen Writing Oasis. We wanted to create something that's free, something that was really great for the community. We have so many people who are going to be involved. There's going to be panels and workshops. And again, it's free. So I'm not sure when this is going to air, but the event is the weekend of July 17th. Again, Cam, thank you so much for having me here. I really appreciate you taking the time to reach out to all of us. And I hope that there's some people who are watching this who will stop by and say hi over on my channel. Bye.
