Where are the Nationals videos???…is the question you’re all asking. I’m working on them and they’re coming, but there is so much footage to sort through and it is a long process to turn it all into a coherent YouTube video.

Plus I have to admit, when I spent two months straight editing the Worlds videos last fall, I got extremely burnt out from only working on one project for weeks at a time. So this time I’m working on the Nationals videos alongside other projects, which gives me a chance to come back to it refreshed every couple of days.

I’m also editing the entire thing at once, instead of fully editing and posting the preliminary rounds and only then starting on the finals. This way I can make sure everything flows through and there isn’t a month-long break between parts.

I’ve been posting on my Instagram story, so I’d recommend following me there for the most frequent updates: @karenpuzzles

In the meantime though, I filmed a very exciting video with a very exciting special guest. This video will be out Thursday May 2nd. Any guesses? 👀

If you missed the last video I posted, it was all about the vintage Yellow Flash puzzle from Springbok, and I included an interview with the artist edited together with the solving footage, to make what I think is a really special video:

I’ll see you on Thursday!

I'm going to have so much content to share from Nationals, but in the meantime I stopped in at Barnes and Noble and saw my third puzzle in stores for the very first time! 🌈 I’m so happy that this puzzle launch went so smoothly and that so many of you have been able to get it already. If you’ve already solved it, did you like it?

I'm making a big change on this channel this year - I've decided to let go of my Sunday release schedule and simply post videos whenever they're finished. I have a lot of video ideas that will take more than a week to make, and the weekly release schedule was getting too stressful for me. I'll still be keeping you all updated over on my Instagram Story (@karenpuzzles), so that's the place to go to find out what I'm working on.

So, good news - my next video will be out tomorrow! (Friday at 9am PST) I'm solving the 5000 piece Pokemon puzzle, so you definitely won't want to miss it!
