Ok, so I'm super dorkily excited. I've been working on this video for a few days and finally got it all put together and uploaded. Basically, its a collection of interviews with random people to get their ideas about what makes a book great, and what lessons other writers can take from those books to improve their own writing. I felt very nerdy collecting the interviews, but I think it turned out well, and I got some good stuff. I hope this is helpful, if it works out I plan to make this a series type thing, and do a new video every once in a while. Anyway, without further ado...
Thanks!

I really enjoyed your video, Sarah, and look forward to your next one.
Great job with your video. You must feel great about doing it!
This is a really great idea, Sarah, I look forward to seeing more. I like that you asked the kid at the end, getting more than one age demographic in there, especially since he had such a good point.

I find myself referring back to your blog quite often because you have great tips and advice. I can also get good ideas and tips by following the people who comment on here. I posted the beginning of a story on my blog that was based on a crazy dream that I had and would love to hear your thoughts. I would have simply emailed you instead of putting that here, but I wasn't sure how to reach you. Thank you very much if you do find the time and if not, no worries!! keep on doing what you do! :)
I found it fascinating to watch others talk about their favorite books. Nice job combining all the bits together. I think you should continue on with this little project. It's beneficial not only to your readers but also to the people you interview.
Nerdiness is the best thing ever! Well, after chocolate. Cool video!
Thanks guys :) Glad it worked out, it was pretty fun.
@Loopy: Sure! I'll try and stop buy asap.
@Su: I agree :) Now, a nerd AND chocolate, that would have been awesome.

This was such a great idea! I found it interesting that so many people chose classics and children's books as their favorites. The kids books seemed to especially have an impact, which is great! I look forward to your future videos. :)
Hi Sarah - well done .. as Gran says - she must be proud of you!!
Loved that you had the courage to do this .. and I listened to the whole lot ..
May I make a suggestion - that you either finish it off with a list of the books, or just say them at the end and thank the speakers .. Just an extra prod to remind us of the books they mention & being British I couldn't quite catch the accents all the time ..
Well done though - & you've obviously got a lot of followers and people who are interested in your writing and tips -
Cheers and thanks for coming over to my blog via the A - Z Challenge .. it's good to see you there and commenting .. Hilary
