Lol what a narcisssit. I thought you were "fighting" orange hitler. Looks like youve just been fighting the ice cream machine at mcdonalds. You are proof that socialists dont love the afflicted, they just hate the compitent.

If everything is political, nothing is political. Your frustration has nothing to do with the external world. You are projecting. 7 uears laters, trump didnt end the world or do a facism. Yet, someone like you tried to kill him. Progressive socialism is the religion of the mentally ill. I hope you got help and didnt double down on derangement over the last 7 years.

Mary and Sue? I wonder where you came up with that idea...

Just to add something: fiction and writing is also about modeling behavior for others, especially YA fiction, but also fiction in general. People tend to repeat actions and behaviors from books TV movies things online. Human beings are impressionable. For example the show Breaking Bad caused a huge spike in users and manufacturers of meth and other drugs because it just made it look like a cool thing to do (for some people at least).

Thanks for the video, how I know I'm a writer. I hit all five notes.

you think the end :)

6th sign if you're a writer --- You read someone else's novel and think you can do better.

I constantly dissect movies and shows... Breaking down how it could have done better especially dialogue

Teen alien queen? Sounds ridiculous

Horrible reading and horrible summary/elevator pitch.

Anyone wanna be my writer friend on Instagram?

I’ve searched this up, because for term two and one I got the highest average of writer a story in composition.Therefore, the teacher left a note that said something like this “Dear, Tina I truly think your going to succeed in life as a writer and I know one day you will be one”. Then my friends assumed since I was so good a writing, that I’m going to be a writer

Don't worry about having a label, just write and write some more. Talk less about it and do more of it. Be rich, live poor.

Sooooooo am I a writer?

How do I know I am a writer. I constantly rewrite scenes from movies, tv shows, or games to fit how I think things should go. I sometimes anticipate how a show or movie will end on the basis of how I think it should end. I write.

Oh lord...

Ma'am, is there a difference between journalistic writing and novel/fiction writing? Would you call both a writer? Would you agree with the quote that "Journalism is literature in a hurry?"

Omg thank you. You legit enlightened me with a great plot twist THANKS

I just thought of some fun variations of these. Have the death not matter at all to the protagonist and this makes the protag question his value system. Why didn't it matter? It should have. What path am I going down? I'm thinking Breaking Bad, where Walt decides to let Jessie's girlfriend die in bed. At that moment he truly became Heisenberg. As for bringing them back, make it where it doesn't work this one time. People have become used to bringing back the dead but this one time it fails. Something like this was done in one of the Clint Eastwood movies (Good the Bad and the Ugly?) where he was going to shoot the rope his friend was being hanged on. No reprieve. Dead. It was done again in the Dungeons and Dragons Honor Among Thieves movie. The whole thrust of the movie was the protag looking for a magic item to bring his wife back to life. He gets it, but then other things happen.

Im currently writing an adventure book and planning two more after it. Ive got the main story and plot, since only two characters are needed, i have alot of characters i can kill of to make it suspenseful

Really helpful. I particularly liked the description of feeling nervous.practise practise practise.brilliant

No. 1 sign of a writer- a person who writes

This is a really great, clear way to describe a pitch! Love your style!

This was and is really great information and I will definitely watch again. Maybe a suggestion to slow down your speaking a bit. I had to rewind a couple of times to catch some of the important information you were sharing. Thank you for shedding light on this much needed topic. Green Fire Motivation

I am struggleing a lot with the I. I use it so much, and its anoying. but I legit dont know how to formialte it diffrently.

Ironically, in the Game of Thrones books, we do have one revived character, Lady Stoneheart whom you had known as Catelyn Stark, but I actually like this resurrection because the revival actually has a price. Instead of being the same old Catelyn Stark, Lady Stoneheart is colder and harsher and filled with vengeance. It's amazing how George R.R. Martin writes resurrections so well. Unlike some two showrunners who revived a certain character and does nothing with it

thanks i love your advice

I don’t think it’s appropriate to take writing advice from someone who thinks “sadistical” is a word

I am writing my manuscript in close 3rd (About 1/2 way done with draft), and it was suggested because I'm a gay man writing m/m romance I should try first person, especially since my characters are facing adversities I did in the early 2000s. Book takes place in 1998, characters are in their mid-30s. I tried to convert the first two chapters and it felt weird and clunky to me. I don't know why. It just didn't feel right. So, I'm writing in close 3rd person. I'd like to do first person, but I'd have to try to learn a new style and not sure if the story would be better for it since it is dual POV.

If you clicked on this video, you're not a writer.

I know this video is 3 years old but thank you so much I was hitting a block with trying to write a romance subplot but your video helped me tons

Yeah, I'm a writer. When I hear writers telling me I need to read a lot of fiction just to be able to write, I laugh. Reading and writing are two separate functions in the brain. If you want to write at all, if you want to write better, you need to get off your duff and write. I've done that exclusively for 13 years. It landed me my contracts. Buying someone's fiction and reading it didn't.

This is not what I was looking for. I waisted minutes of my life watching this 😢

I know I'm a writer because I write.....

THanks for this. I had come up with an idea to create my first story ever but then i realized that there have been shows and books that already came up with it. Very similar to my premise but my plot would take place with different scenarios and settings, and much more. I was really worried if I am taking someones idea, but i never took anyone's idea if i happen to come up with the same as them. But more importantly i dont want to change it. Maybe this is just me as a amateur writer, and should realize that this is normal. Thanks for this.

Hey! I'm new to your channel (and I know this video is 9 months old). However, I wanted to say Congratulations on your new book!!! 🎉 I read the first chapter, and I'm planning on getting The Wicked Bargain really soon. Excited to read it!

You have have a cute face.

R.I.P. headphone 🎧 users!!!! 😞

cs mofos be carefully inserting in themselves :D that's me

Agreed

The emotional part mentioned also applies to screenwriting as well.

I get depressed when i don't write. I didn't consent to this🤰

Would you ever re-release the Beyond the Red series under your correct pseudonym? I would re-purchase the whole series :)

I LOVE the Beyond the Red series!! Do you have more books? Or more in the works?

“A writer writes!” You win a cookie if you get this reference… 🍪

I am a writer. I submitted a poem to a magazine for publication - got rejected. I framed the rejection letter.

I am in love with you!!! You are georgeous !!!!

I wonder if publishers also take out marketing fees as well?

My solvings in my story for these: 1 - Describing MC in the mirror "I was met with my brother's light blue eyes, which we both inherited from our mother." "[Love interest]'s hand brushed through my jet black hair that I always let fall onto my shoulders." 2 - Starting with MC waking up Uhm I didn't solve this but I did introduce MC's brother and sorta told how bad the mom was 3 - Curing MC In my book, I'm going to try to write the love interest to introduce more problems for the MC. 4 - Magic cure Not doing it because MC grew up in a household where he basically sold his body- It left PERMANENT body issues and fear of older men and women- Strangely, not enby people
