exploding + youtube channel ideas

I brainstormed some of my youtube channel video ideas when i got home. it's been a little frustrating, but i've been thinking a bit more deeply about what i want that channel to be. since i've been having a good time with my recent videos, i want to translate that into something that the right people (the people who will want that) will find and enjoy. mostly it's exploring my own curiosities and the linkings my brain makes between different medias and larger discussions.

so because it's leaning away from a full typical booktube channel, i want to explore other ideas that will make the channel feel more like itself and become what it wants to be. 

so here are some of the ideas ive had
(1) why and how i made an EP even though i'm not trying to be a musical artist professionally
(2) looking at Hyunjin's book recommendations
(3) recommending books I think Hyunjin from Stray Kids would like 
(4) the story of how i went from someone who hadn't even read a fanfic to posting 20 chapters of one in my 30s 
(5) mapping out a web of literature references from the books on my shelf (not sure how to market this one yet, but the concept being that i look at the epigraphs at the beginning of my books and build out a map, could be a part of a series)  
(6) a series of reading albums like poetry or literature such as Brat or Imaginal Disk 

and also just a pure booktube idea, my favorite translated works

i filmed part of a video this afternoon which was recommending books based on the songs that randomly pop up from my liked music playlist. 

feeling extremely easy to irritate today, but also feeling a drive to do things. it's overall a very frustrating feeling because i'd like to be functional, but i also feel like im exploding.
