I decided to make an Instagram account to keep me accountable to finishing my book by my 30th birthday (which is in 397 days lmao). It'll be the good, the bad and the ugly parts of the creative process and hopefully an opportunity to grow an audience of like-minded people. Inflow Content Club has given me the courage and inspiration to finally get out there and share my journey on social media; to create a sense of community, keep me on track with my goals and honestly to have some fun. Excited to see where the journey leads me. Here's the account if you fancy following along: @ambersreturn

I have done a few talking to camera posts recently so instead thought I would share a video I created from my last weekend in Norfolk with what has been on my mind lately. I often question myself as to why I am working in a corporate job when this is the outcome of me tapping into my creative. 🤔

The other thing I wanted to say is that through gaining enthusiasm at Content Club I moved it through to an area I AM more confident (because I am playing a character) and I've started doing video content for my drama group's upcoming production. When we were just posting photos of rehearsals (an am-dram staple) we'd get a couple of hundred views. Now I am producing semiweekly 30-40 second reels and video posts, and creating content which allows me to tag into town pages, businesses, or specific groups you can see my views/impressions are going up to over 5000 on one post, and box office for the show has increased by about 13% over the last fortnight. And, more importantly, I'm enjoying it!

Hey, guys. Had a great call last Friday with content club. A few weeks ago, I didn't want to make videos because I don't like the way I look in them, then I made some videos anyway and with your support I felt better about it all - but didn't have anywhere to post them! Now I've made an FB business page that's about me as an entertainer rather than me as a design business (politics with my business partner stopped me posting there!) and I'm starting to put them out. Wouldn't have done that without your support and guidance, so thanks all! I have another thing to say which makes my headline make more sense... but this post is getting TL;DR so I'll do a part 2!

It's official! I'm starting a new series... and it's called 'Fuck the edit and YAP' 🤭 Last week's challenge helped me unlock some much needed camera confidence so I thought I'd share a few little wins and some thoughts on creating content that isn't perfect. Wins for this video: ✅ Filmed myself talking to camera outside ✅ Kept talking even when walking past a cyclist ✅ Yapped to the camera for over two minutes
