I want Dan Brown’s house. 😅
so does Blythe
Me also
plot twist: he wrote that green screen he's using and its charming you
HHH
Totally. I like to imagine that living in a house like that would incite me to be in the mood to write all the time. :)
I am a composer, but Dan's tips on writing (whether novels, non-fiction, short stories, scripts or music) are immensely valuable for anyone in the creative fields.
He's spot on about the comparison between music and writing (at 48:00)
just bought MC and the first one I watched was Dan Brown's. Within 1 hour he completely transformed my villain with advice that came amazingly clear. He gave me a real bulb light moment and for that alone was enough for the entire $$180 class
after revealing a next book "secret" Dan says "Is any one actually out there watching to hear this?" Answer : about 682,000 people and counting so far Dan. Great video - thank you so much !!
I love his MasterClass. I keep re-watching it.
I wrote my first fiction book because of his masterclass, and it just got picked up for a TV series. Dan is truly an inspiration.
Congratulations! That is fantastic! Well done!
This is the best of the best in Masterclass. Truly inspiring.
Excellent !! always enjoying listening to Dan Brown and his amazing way to share advices .
For writers - he is perfect. I loved Atwood and Bolladacrhi - they are great as well, but he is very structured . Like a real teacher - which he is. Thank you, Dan Brown!!!
Such an amazing class! Thank you so much, Dan and Davis!
Dan's "respect the process" (and the reader) teaching approach inspired me to sign up for the MasterClass program... and I'm thoroughly enjoying all my teachers... though Dan Brown will no doubt remain my favorite.
Dan Browns master class is very good. It has given me a lot of insights and ideas to dwell upon
I love reading books, I've read all genres, many authors but Dan Brown Sir's books are something else.. mind-blowing, epic, masterpiece.. duh, you are great Sir! I really wish to learn from you personally
His books are addictive.
Davis Carter, you are a terrific interviewer. Thank you!
After watching this interview I think I’m actually in love with Dan Brown! 😍
Amazing! I’ve watched the first 11min and can’t wait to see the rest tomorrow morning, but now I’m dead tired! Dan Brown really knows the deal! I’m writing my first novel in my first language and I can see it truly is all about sitting on a bed of nails and keep telling yourself “this is very important to me!”.
Some days you feel discouraged, some others you hate your writing, but sometimes good words come out and you can look at your page proudly!
This virus catastrophe helped me A LOT in finding time and focus!
THANK YOU FOR SHARING! I wish I could afford the master class!
This is awesome. On the question of handling the writing of thrillers based on true history- it can be done and when it’s done well, it’s SUCH a treat for historical buffs to read. An example for me is ‘Legacy’ by Susan Kay. It’s about Queen Elizabeth the 1st. If you can find it, I highly recommend it.
It's my first time watching Dan brown masterclass, I think it's good...
Simply brilliant🧡 I will
protect the process🔥Thank you‼️

Great content. Please do more of this!
I have also really enjoyed Masterclass it is a great investment for learning. There are so many great classes and Dan Brown's writing class is amazing. I highly recommend joining Masterclass.
I love Dan's tip about working in cliffhangers - get in late on the scene and leave early. That's great advice, and he makes it sound so easy.
Fascinating! I learned so much! Thank you.

Thank you!
Dan Brown’s books are the best, like I literally mean it.
Great masterclass. Thanks. I am a huge fan of Dan Brown and I also love writing and my big dream is to get at least 1 book published, but I am struggling to find the time and space. But the tips were very helpful.
Good luck with your book!
Really good. Resisting rewriting what you wrote yesterday...great question.
It is hilarious how Dan Brown's house is Da Brown
Wonderful session of Dane !
I have never watched a better video About writing advices👍😅phenomenal Dan Brown with lots of Experience... it was So interesting listening to him with So Many detailed explanations that one watching is not nearly enough🤓
Which book would you recommend to read
I feel like the girl that he mentioned that came from the previous novel is "Katherine" from the lost symbol
Dan Brown's house looks like a location where you'd come across an important item in one of his books
I'll have to read his books, he's kind of funny.
I usually am most inspired when I am bored. Used to be a CNA and when I was assigned as a sitter for a patient for a 12 hour shift, there wasn't much to do besides watch the patient and think. Same with long drives, you get into a rhythm and there isn't much to do besides drive and think. I have definitely had some really cool breakthroughs during those times, even if it was a mind numbing process to get to it.
Thank you sir for the advice
Protect the process.
This masterclass is such a gem 💓
@Books with love 🙌
Thanks for this.
Dan Brown is incredible!!
Hi

Thank you for this interview ♥️♥️♥️
Hi
Quality content 👌
great talk
We are finally getting a crossover with the Robert Langdon series with either Deception Point or Digital Fortress.
I’m gonna be thinking about that door all day
There was a rat. As a kid he grew up sniffing the sauces and the sweet meats wafting up from the five Michelin star restaurant below. The constant heat from the ovens kept him warm as he read the best chefs and memorised their secret recipes. Aw! Nuts. It's one of those stories that's been told before.
Ha! spilled the beans, very funny!
when he is going to write a new book ??? can any body pleas answer !
Спасибо
Clock, crucible, and contract
Thanks for sharing this. I learnt a lot.

Som of satan
Write a Coronavirus book
I agree with Dan on many points, but for heaven's sake, he came to Sevilla, Spain, my hometown. Now that he's talking about honesty, he totally ruined the description of Seville in "Digital Fortress," with no need to, even for purposes of poetic license. That made me not trust the descriptions he writes of other cities. But, Dan, as you say, "Be honest." I still enjoy your books, but don't give silly reinventions of cities just to make your novels interesting. I read this book after "The Da Vinci Code," and this miscontruction of my city made me lose certain respect. Let's give an example, translating it to an American city, of what he did to mine. Let's take Washington D.C., for example, so that you can see an analogy of how Dan butchered the description of my city. Imagine I write a book where the action happens in D.C. and I say that City Hall is in the Lincoln Memorial. The disco I "mention" is located right next to the White House. And so on. This is especially horrifying when a writer has been in the city he's describing. Again, if a writer wants to use poetic license, yet be truthful, include a page at the end of the book, mentioning all these changes of venue and why you decided to do so. *That* is being honest. Digital Fortress is the only book I've thrown into the waste basket. I love your novels, Dan, but be honest.
