#808 I Have Launched a New YouTube Channel
Nanbaruwan, the personality of this show, has finally launched the long-awaited YouTube reading channel, "Nemukunaru Monogatari." In this episode, they talk in detail about why they chose "reading aloud" as an activity, the story behind its inception, and the behind-the-scenes process of building the channel.
A meeting in May was the catalyst for starting the channel.
Everything began when I learned about a freelance woman featured on a channel providing side hustle information. I was touched by her wonderful idea of reading picture books to help children fall asleep. While I initially considered using AI voices, my desire to deliver content with "my own voice" grew stronger, leading me to pursue a form of expression that feels uniquely my own.
It took shape through interactions with a collaborator.
In preparing the channel, including creating the YouTube icon and brainstorming title ideas, collaborating with Chappy-san was essential. Although I was juggling this with the publication prep for my second Kindle book, "Watashi no Oshi Noka," working closely with someone I trust allowed me to gradually bring my ideal vision to life, even amidst a busy schedule.
There is a warm experience unique to reading aloud.
In fact, while developing the show's structure, I made a significant decision to change an initial policy I had set. I share the story behind that change, what it means to me as Nanbaruwan to "deliver stories with my own voice," and the struggles I faced during preparation. Please listen to the full episode to hear the rest.
