BornToWrite47
An anonymous gamer, a faceless Twitch streamer, and YouTube creator, Nora Byrne goes by noidentityceptmine on the Internet. She never believed she'd get ten subscribers, but within the last two years she has reached a milestone: one million. None of her fans know who she is. She is known for her hoodies, background lights, second alto voice, and hatred for scary video games, which her audience wants to hear her react to.
But ideas have disappeared. The intense pressure to give, to give, to make, to make, and upload her videos every day (sometimes two videos per day) has exceeded her limit.
After a burnout and struggling with her grief, she takes a break. She knows this is her paycheck. She understands there could be a backlash. She finds a new video gamer, one who yells, high pitch voice, and his Irish accent . . . she starts to watch his videos: Séamus Reid. New perspective. Games that she hasn't played before. Will she return to making videos? Should she reach out? Maybe a new friendship?
