I got this idea from a YouTube cooking channel I like to watch. Me and 600k other subscribers! The videos on the channel are totally simple. This guy’s a cook in a restaurant in Europe somewhere. The camera is attached to his shirt. All you see is him cooking. No music, no words! Just open a bag of pasta, put it in the water. Squirt olive oil in the pan. Put the garlic in. That sort of thing. The comments on the channel are insane!

So, I wondered if people would like to watch me write. No words, no explanation, no sound, no nuthin’!

Some people are going to love this, some hate it.

Hopefully, you’ll find it interesting.

In the video I’m about 41,000 words into my new mystery, The Case of the Serious Spoonbill. This is the 13th book in the Julia Lives in a Van series. You can get these at Amazon. You can even download book 1 below for free!

Let me know if you enjoy the video!
