My Favorite Female Authors

Plus their website looks so minimal and sketch?

Also guaranteed $400+ per video that doesn’t need to go on my account sounds too good to be true

Has anyone heard of The Plug being a platform that connects brands with content creators?

Someone emailed me and while they’ve been answering my questions about their platform, it’s still pushy and they haven’t explained what about my content they like and why they think I would be a good fit.

Oops I dropped off from here but since it’s #InternationalWomensDay here are some of my favorite female authors!

Absolutely! In fact, I think you deserve at least two books

Whoops almost forgot to tell people that my video about my 2025 digital #readingjournal is up!

The whole reason I dropped off from making content was because my previous job was so intense and I don’t want that but also the job market glorifies being overworked

Charmaine (林恩) | Bookworm @charmainereads.bsky.social · Feb 7

The idea of building my content platforms again is so weird because I’m enjoying it so much but also so worried that I won’t have the time for it when I get a full-time job again and that preemptively makes me kind of sad.

Okay so I can’t keep up with all the social platforms at once but I did just hit 2k followers on TikTok today and that feels like a huge milestone!

My first video about my digital journal is up! I’m quite proud of how this turned out considering that I built it in Canva and crashed the app multiple times while doing so 😅

Oooh I’ve been wanting to start that but the length of the series intimidates me cause I’m not good at following through with series 😅

Someone said I should start posting videos on BlueSky so here’s me testing it with a rare video I have that’s under 60 seconds cause I talk too much

Not bookish but my iPad is truly the reason I think I can juggle YouTube and Instagram this year as a more dedicated return to content 🥰

My favorite thing is to answer scam calls in a different language.

Call me here in Chinese? I’m playing up my American accent and adding confusion.

Call me in the US? You’re getting annoyed Canto in response.

Never fails to make them hang up first ✌🏼

Decided to put on an audiobook while packing instead of having Netflix on and now I’m remembering why I so easily read many books while I was in college. The few minutes of walking between classes could easily knock out a chapter and get me closer to my reading goal

My Last Week of Work (& yapping about the unknown future)

Charmaine (林恩) | Bookworm @charmainereads.bsky.social · Jan 6

Me: “I should do a reading vlog for my first book of 2025.”

My TBR jar: “Here’s a 125 page book that you’ll fly through. Good luck getting more than a six-min vlog out of it!”

I (mostly) successfully vlogged my final week of work!

What I thought was going to be a chill week turned into me having a ton to do before clocking out for the last time, but you can listen to me talk about that, future plans, content creation, and more 🥰

Unexpectedly had to re-film two videos today but got it done and now I can spend two very long upcoming flights doing a lot of video editing

Omg this is perfect, thank you!

I Resigned (burnt out & rethinking content creation)

Charmaine (林恩) | Bookworm @charmainereads.bsky.social · Jan 1

After three years, I’ve made my return to YouTube/BookTube with a new video.

I hope this return will be a little more consistent, but mostly, I want this to become fun for me again.
