Despite my handle I really don't tweet about my channel enough. So! I have a YouTube channel called "Big Friendly Grub" - I started it last year. It's small but slow growing. But I would LOVE for it to reach 1,000 followers by my birthday in Jan. (1/6)

I'm currently on 626 subscribers which is great and I love doing the channel but it costs me a lot of time and money. 1,000 followers will allow me to join the YouTube partner program and monetise a bit. I started the channel as a way to push out of my comfort zone. (2/6)
I suffer from anxiety and depression and this was a huge step for me. If you watch my earlier videos and you'll see I was SO nervous and awkward. I'd quit drinking, had recently moved and was struggling with confidence. I'm still super nervous but I've grown to have fun. (3/6)
This year has been hard because COVID has meant I live by myself and I've not had anyone to bake or cook for as I live by myself - so the channel is a way to allow me to do so, in a way. It's been tough to juggle with a full-time job but I do it because I love it. (4/6)
I also started a Ko-fi page, but I haven't shared it because I feel like I haven't done anything worth people giving me money for. But I know that's my anxiety telling me that and I've done a lot of videos I'm proud of (and some not!) So here it is: https://ko-fi.com/bigfriendlygrub (5/6)
So, if you haven't checked out my channel - I do recipes, food tastings, gadget reviews and I'm trying to create new content every week. It's been tough but I love it. If you subscribe, retweet this thread and help me reach my goal... it would mean the world to me.
