Hey, everyone! It’s so nice to see you back here again. I have some rather exciting news today…

I finally started a YouTube channel and uploaded my first video!

This is something I’ve wanted to do for years, but I never got around to it. I even invested in a few supplies, and still I found myself too nervous to actually record and upload anything.

On a whim, this past week, I ordered the remainder of the few very basic components I need to record a video, and I got started. I plopped down on the floor against my bed, and I talked for 20 minutes about the absolute treasure of a book that is The Picture of Dorian Gray. I went in depth on the meaning of the story, what it meant to me personally, and who I would recommend it to.

Since I chose to watch the 2009 film adaptation starring Ben Barnes, I also made a book vs movie comparison out of the video and shared my thoughts on the movie adaptation.

In my excitement, I made all my edits last night and uploaded the video just before midnight. I am so happy to share with you my very first book vs film review on my very own YouTube channel. I plan to post full-length bookish videos weekly (and possibly some short videos along the way as well).

My goal is not to grow into a huge channel right now, but instead to dip my toes into bookish content creation on YouTube, and to connect with more people like me who have a similar love for books and storytelling. There is so much potential for positive connection on a platform like YouTube, and I want to be a part of that.

I have linked my first video below, and if you take a moment to watch it, I hope you will also leave a comment and let me know your thoughts on the story. Thank you, as always, for keeping up with my blog! I hope you have a great day, and I’ll see you all later!
