How to ADHD

Day 12 — very serious prep work.

In which I explain the googly eyes.

Day 11 - Merry Snapchat Christmas!

Thank you so much for all you’ve done for us this year, and Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate!  My Snapchat is going to be on the DL til I figure out what I’m doing, but you can see it first!   My Snapchat: 2017-12-26 01:50:32 +0000 UTC View Post

Day 10! ...we’re still writing.

Totally worth it though.

So that escalated quickly...

I wrote a completely new script for “routines” and we now have a shopping list for tomorrow’s shoot:

Eyedropper
Black sheets or other backdrop
Dominos
Labels for dominos
Toothpicks or thin straws or skinny skewers
Googly eyes.

New vlog tomorrow should explain 😂

Professional YouTuber Vlog Day 5 -- The Brain Dump

This is the second step of my creative process, after researching and before writing.  

**I say during the video that I put it “on a single page” — but in the writing program I use (Scrivener) a “single page” can be as long as you need it to be. I’ve never printed out my brai...

Introducing the Full Time YouTuber Vlog!

Hello Patreon Brains!

I thought it might be interesting to document the journey of becoming a professional YouTuber, so I’m gonna do a daily behind-the-scenes Vlog as a Patreon exclusive :) My focus will always be on the How to ADHD channel so these will just be short, raw pieces. This is D...

Merch is heeeeere!!!

Hello Patreon Brains!

We did it and didn't die! Edward and I finally figured out redbubble, finished all (well, almost all) the designs -- there's still one we want to add that says "I play on hard mode" because that's what we ADHDers do (and Edward and I say to each other whenever we're feeling d...

Merch update!

Hey Patreon brains!

Edward and I are SO CLOSE to getting the merch shop done on redbubble.com, and someone asked if we could do discounts for Patreon brains. We wanted to but honestly couldn't figure out how. If anyone knows of a site that does print on demand and also allows creators to give out ...

Making things!

This is the last piece we’re creating for the howtoadhd shop on redbubble.com (we’ll link to it as soon as it’s ready, hopefully in the next few hours or so!)

This is the message to the brains I shared at the end of my TEDx talk. I wanted anyone who needed these words to have them, so ...

Patreon update

Hello Patreon Brains!

First of all, THANK YOU for still being here amid the chaos of the new system Patreon is implementing.

Second, I’ve been listening and talking with you about your concerns and to be honest I’m not happy about the change as well and I don’t know any creator ...

Patreon's email -- thoughts?

Hello Patreon Brains!

I wanted to reach out because I got an email from Patreon (and you’ll be getting one soon, if you haven’t already) saying that they’re changing the way the fees are structured.

Right now, Patreon gets a very fair 5% of donations and then all of the transacti...

Merch is coming!! Whatcha want?

Hello Patreon brains and hearts!

Edward and I are working on getting merchandise up in time for Christmas, is there anything in particular you'd be interested in? 

We'll be working with https://www.redbubble.com/ for thi...

ADHD pro tip:

If you and your partner are both struggling to get started on something, try trading tasks! I'm editing the huge brain collaboration while Edward works on crafting fun form responses to the messages I'm overwhelmed with on Facebook. The challenge of stepping outside our usual comfort zones got us ba...

While Edward's Away...

The Candy Corns play! Edward's in New York for a friend's wedding, so this is me pulling selects and doing a rough assemble on the Halloween video so when he gets back tomorrow we'll have a (slight) chance of actually posting this by, you know, Halloween. Wish us luck!!

Pulling Selects for the Huge Brain Collab

Jessica's thoughts as we pull selects (meaning, choose the clips we feel work best) for the Huge Brain Collab. Volume may be a little all over the place, so be careful with your ears.

Did someone say "Halloween episode"?

We're last minute as usual, but I think this one is going to be extra fun: "Does Candy Make Kids Hyperactive?" Shooting that this weekend! :)
