My love… how are you?
I’m good… I was playing Sims until about dinner time… so I got in maybe 2.5 hrs? Not much. Lol…
Are you gonna build that up?
Yeah. Like going to the gym.
I’m gonna see if I get into a routine of a 4 hours play. But I need to give myself breaks in between those 4 hours. I have go to the toilet. I have to re-hydrate.
So you’re only planning to stream for 4 hours at a time?
I don’t know… but that seems more realistic for my current routines. I’m not devoting 8 or 12 hours to games.
R u gonna stream on Twitch?
I don’t know… what are some other options?
YouTube?
Mmmmm… I don’t know. I think most people just start on Twitch then re-purpose for YouTube…
Tik Tok?
No… that app hasn’t done anything for me.
I would only Tik Tok if I happen to clip some things for YouTube shorts and then just repurpose on Reels and Tik Tok.
Oh…
Actually even just saying that makes me feel like I can’t be bothered… can’t I hire an assistant to do all that for me? I think I just wanna start on Twitch.
If Twitch following grows to the point where I can hire an assistant then I will hire the assistant to repurpose everything for all the other channels.
But wouldn’t repurposing help you grow on the other channels?
Not necessarily… it just feels like time and energy that I don’t have to spend right now. If I’m just playing and streaming as a hobby… let’s see if I need an assistant if I reach 100K on Twitch. Since that seems to be the current top spots.
I’m not going to take any of it seriously until I reach that number. Before then it’s just a hobby.
Okay. I support you my love 😍
Hahahaha… do you want me to be famous?
Not if you don’t want it.
I want you to be successful in whatever you want to be successful in.
If you enjoy streaming — which, I have a feeling you will — then I want you to be successful in it!
Mmmmm…
I will have a think about the routines tho.
See today was a Saturday. I happened to have the day off.
And I didn’t even feel like playing a game until the afternoon. The morning was watching Eras Tour documentary.
Yes… lol…
That’s why I think it’ll only be a 4 hours on a Saturday afternoon thing.
Okay? Are you gonna play again next Saturday?
No. I’ve been rostered on at work.
Lol… 😅
See it’s hard to decide on a day for consistency!
Mmmmhmmm…
But then again do I want to be that consistent or do I want to be less predictable? I know they say to be consistent to build an audience but at the same time — streaming is, by the very nature of it — a little too parasocial right?
If they know my routine is Saturdays but then I still get rostered to work some random Saturdays then wouldn’t they know I’m at work if I don’t stream that Saturday?
That’s only if you tell them?!
How else would they know that that’s your reason for not being on the stream that day?
Oh. Hmmm… 😅
What about a day during the week?
But sometimes I need to like, book a dentist appointment or stuff like that on my rare free weekdays. Urgh…
Don’t stress about a consistent day yet. Since it’s just a hobby.
Yeah… … …
I still feel like Saturdays might be my days for gaming and maybe streaming.
What about Sundays?
No…
Monday evenings?
Mmmmmm… maybe… … …
But also, no…
I’m gonna say Saturdays. And if I’m at work, then, Saturday evenings.
So it’s gonna be 4 hours of playing Sims every Saturday. Whether during the day or evenings if I have work that day.
Should I make this a new year’s resolution?
I think it’s… up to you…
So next Saturday I’m gonna play in the evening, after work.
Won’t you feel tired?
Actually time passes pretty quickly when I’m playing…
Lol…
I just want to set my boundaries. Guardrails.
Uhuh…
Let’s see if I keep this up for even one month into January before I even start a Twitch account.
Okies 🥰
