    Happy New Year!!! I just wanna say; I watched your video on the four tips to start writing, and it changed everything. I have ADHD, and consequently I’ve been thinking about the same book idea since I was 12😅. But after I watched your video, specifically the zero draft part, I was able to plan a fully fleshed plot in 2 days! It was such a relief because I’ve had constant writer’s block for ages, but now my mind is clear. I feel like I have the tools to write anything now haha😂 Your tips are game changers for me, and you’ve become my favorite writing influencer! Thank you

    Your channel is such a safe space for new authors and authors in general. I’ve looking for so many tips and guidance to start writing, and all of them were so intimidating and structured in a way that didn’t align with how my brain works and creates. Your channel was seriously the light at the end of the tunnel. Your tips are so incredibly helpful, your 4 step process to write a book served as an epiphany to me and it was exactly the guidance I needed to start writing and not be so intimidated. And the more I dive into your channel the more I realize every one of your videos is a literal treasure. Thank you so much for this wonderful channel and community.

    Instead of presuring myself to write a full lenght book (or even first draft, which I haven't done yet) this year, I am planning on experimenting with writing this year! I've already written some poetry (the last time I did I was sixteen or something, now I'm 18, and a few days ago I looked at my poetry again and really liked it so now I'm writing some again!), I wanna explore writing scenes with certain emotions (like how do I write a scene where a character is angry, or has a secret), write some short stories (last year I wrote two) and all those things. Just wanted to share this for the people who are also scared of the idea of a novel, you don't have to write a whole book to be a writer! Short stories, poetry (although that is a very different kind of writing), or just writing a scene is writing too! Good luck everyone

    I've started a book and here is my concept, a girl meets another girl and they fall in love. They are in love for about 10 months, but one girl falls out of love. Absolutely crushing the main girl. And she turns to SH/Suicide to help "cure" her depressive state. She ends up attempting Suicide and almost succeeded but her mom catches her the night before. Her mother is broken and sends her to intense therapy and mental hospitals. She ends up living in a mental hospital for almost a year and completely loses her sense of emotion. Blank forever. Then she wakes up one morning and decides to try and end it again. She again, almost succeeded but her therapist walked in and caught her. She ended up being severely injured and upon seeing her mom's broken down face, starts sobbing and her therapist teaches her how to feel emotions again. (This is somewhat based off of personal experiences.)

      @jesseheymann3295 9 месяцев назад +5

      Hi there. So for finding a storyline, a good rule of thumb is "what is the worst possible thing that could happen to this character?". Something that would absolutely destroy them.
      Make that your inciting incident. Then work from to there to have him figure out what to do next.
      Next, what values does this character hold? What does he want most in this world? What lines will he NEVER cross?
      Then, create characters with polar opposite ideologies and let him clash with them. That is juicy conflict.
      And create situations that put him in positions to cross his boundaries, so that he makes difficult choices and is tested.
      Or people or things that keep him from what he desires most.
      Or, what tropes do you enjoy most in the media you consume? Heists? Duels? Treasure hunt?
      If you enjoy watching/reading them, you'll probably love writing them. List them, and see if some can be used as a story.
      Let your imagination ran wild with it.
      Hope that helps.

    • @krenko-
      @krenko- 9 месяцев назад

      Do what Jesseheymann3295 said! It's wonderful advice. I'd also suggest looking at your worldbuilding and asking questions- actively try to poke holes, see what doesn't fit, see what you could add, and maybe try to pull a story from that. I'd love to help but without knowing anything about your story I can't much.

Though i don't want to go to collage for cooking i want to go for art. and haven't my own art business and make a book to sell it. I've already planned for a book i want to write I've planned for some of it last year it's called " the slow artist " i am only 16 years old and i make my own poetry and my own stories i write like my life depends on it, I can't go a day without writing. I don't know what to do i don't want to say yes however i don't want to say no coming off as rude. also i love your channel i want to publish my poems and i want to publish books and let others se my art, my creativity. i already made a poem called financial Creativity which at 15 years old i was crying because i feel that creativity won't help me financially leading to the point i thought creativity was childish also hppy new yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

    Hi guys, should I write my book on wattpad (not publishing, just using it as a place to write) or in a doc?🥺🫶
