The sound quality on this channel is def in top 5 across all YT. What an amazing experience!
Oh these pieces of advice are so valuable! This is definitely a welcomed variation of your content which I already loved! =)
I've had writer's block for about a month. I'm on page 93 and this helped remind and motivate me to continue on.
How's things going with your writing ?
@@lawrencebolt3540 Sorry for the delayed response. I actually was on a writing spree, then couldn't find the post.
I completed three more pages of that story and about twenty or so pages of another story before hitting a wall. I started a few more stories and had to look back at them and try to figure out what I was doing wrong. I spent a few days watching writing videos and slowly realized I had similar major problems in most of my stories: 1) too many characters; 2) I was writing villain vs villain stories; 3) I would switch stories each day; 4) My stories were longer than what I was skilled for; 5) I was playing three video games daily; and 6) CZcams can distract me for hours at a time.
As a side note, my stories would be considered "fan fiction." I have two original stories on the back burner, but I'm not even going to start them until I work through all my faults.
The 93 page story (now 96) I have 59 characters that have already been introduced with a dozen more planned. Four out of the six stories I have are villain vs villain. (Two, the protagonist/anti-hero aren't known as villains at the start; one corrupts himself, the other is a reveal.)
I cut back to writing between two stories at a time, but now I'm just doing one, which I've been consistent with. I don't write as quickly as other people. Definitely not as fast as the professional authors suggest; I might get a thousand words in a day. (I can type 50-60 wpm if I'm copying something, but not when writing my own stories). I have a short story completed and am working on a novella length, medieval fantasy now which should be completed by the end of April. I could possibly finish it sooner, but I still play one video game daily (takes 1 to 1 1/2 hours) and CZcams still draws me in. ;)
@@grondhero sounds like you've got quite a lot on your plate! Lol I'm happy to see you trotting along at your own pace.
I myself used to suffer from the "wild horse syndrome". I'd be making perfect progress on a story , and then I'm swept up in the ecstasy of the scene and before I know it, I've broken loose from the stables and now I'm Galluping away! Spiralled off a couple more pages, talking about stuff using my extreme creativity, tapping myself on the back for each hidden jewel I masterfully hid...
however from the outside looking in, it can appear as if I'm flogging a dead horse and the point had been achieved far sooner...
" You had them from hello", is what I try to tell myself when these moments of passion happen.
I also write stories, like musicians view music. Where I break the pages up into
4bars
8 bars
Or 16 bars
I have a 4 step structure that I follow, I contract it for the 4 bar, and expand it for the 16 bar. But the 4 step structure is always consistent. In this sense, my writing becomes fractal in form. This structure allows me to keep moving forward and to evenly distribute my creative juices so that i don't over cook myself.
This is all probably of more interest to me than it is to you, but I thought I'd tell my self it publically one more time lol
Stay focused. Sleep well, eat well and good luck!
Best wishes,
This channel is the friend I need when my life gets tough
Valuable beyond words. Thank you.
This video ended too quickly. I was panting for more. But thanks for sharing it. Really appreciated the advice from King and Steinbeck the most. (Going to replay now.)
My channel is Structure quotes I hope u like 😊
Content is welcomed..❤❤❤
Plz bring this type of content for aspiring content writers
Thanks a lot for these master piece.
Good video! Straight to the point
What a great video! Thanks for unblocking some creative juices that seemed to be stuck in my valves, this video helped unblock my veins
Great advice!!!
Thanks for making video on writers
Great video 😊❤️
Nice and inspirational.
Very interesting. Perhaps not a part of
how writers write, but an interesting element.
Steinbecks story also involves an upper middle class upbringing in Southern California. He had talent and opportunity.
Being a creative is often thankless and fruitless financially. It helps enormously to have resources and connections.
With resources, talent and hard-work
and discipline, a few succeed.
So true. Like some people have to work in their day jobs to afford the time that they can write in. I believe a writer should write, no matter what. Even as small as 30 minutes a day would work.
As once said, "Writing is easy. All you have to do is sit down at your Typewriter and Bleed. I believe in the way the movie, Finding Forest, protradeed. I just sit down and start writing no pressure, just enjoy yourself. I write seven to eight pages at a time, when I feel like it. I write four to five times a week at anytime of the day or night. Writing comes easy for me. I am a free-handed writer. I just write without device to help. No brain storming just write automatically.
I dont know where to start from and with that i love writing
Aye but brainstorming is necessary for a guiding plan, that enables you to free write something profound.
This was fantastic. More please.
I wrote for the first time yesterday in awhile. The idea came to me so it just flowed out.

You don't need to follow these rules or habits, you just create a habit for you. For example, a regular worker probably doens't have the same situation like Murakami, know? Run, swinm, painting, flying, etc. He/She doesn't have enought time. So, try to create your own habit.
Very informative information about how to be a good writer! Thank you! For example, ever since I was a kid, I’ve dreamed of putting my career and life into writing. At the age of 13 she began to write poetry, there is a fairy tale, an unfinished novel-research, many entries in personal diaries, but apparently, need structure and completeness. Until all this is not finished and in the table. I really hope in the future to publish my love lyrics with friends. I think the world will accept it no worse than in the past Pushkin was accepted!
Nice video 💞
Considering I’m a writer, this was greatly needed.
We conquer the world by conquering ourselves.
Needed this.
Nice
Thank you, can't go wrong following the greats.
Does he listen to music, then write or listen to music while he writes?
Hey do you have a podcast?
Great video, though missing critical information - for example, *Stephen King has expressed using cocaine often to keep writing, hence his high output of novels! 😊❤ and, of course, this is okay in my opinion, to be at our best we must do most anything to reach our best; success prevails over the means
Very useful for me ( inspiration ) 👍👍 ( NRS poetry musicalisasi )

I write on weekends and these advices are so thoughtful
Is this the voice of Lemmino channel?
I surely wasn't expecting a video article from you guys, but I sure don't mind. I guess the one of the better qualities of a writer is to tell something you didn't knew you wanted to hear.

Critical information.
1000 words a day is great for those of use who write as a hobby
Does anybody know the name of the narrator? What a fantastic voice.
Great video but not only video!

I never get writing block? ✍️
I write '1000 to 1500 words daily, after my work day is finished on weekdays.' Which takes half an hour to an hour.
Weekends, I can produce 2000 - 2500 words in an hour. Sometimes, I'll write in the morning and afternoon to have a minimum of 3000 - 3500 words.
5:09 The Internet suggests "If a scene or a section gets the better of you and you still think you want it-bypass it and go on. When you have finished the whole you can come back to it and then you may find that the reason it gave trouble is because it didn't belong there". Isn't that pulling stuff out of context?
One word ROUTINE
Pretty cool 😎 man
Well, I miss the previous deep voice in the videos, the voice in the video with the music is a bit distracting

Black holes of mind...
A black hole is a region of spacetime where gravity is so strong that nothing - no particles or even electromagnetic radiation such as light - can escape from it. The theory of general relativity predicts that
a sufficiently compact mass
can deform
spacetime
to form
a black hole..

They forgot to mention the copious amount of cocaine Stephen King used to use😂 also no routine quite like Hunter S. Thompson’s. (Not hating, just a joke)

Hey Guys 🙂
Don't try.
Stephen King needs to get a life. I write stuff but only piece by piece every now and then.
No one is begging you to write books bro.
