    The emotion thesaurus and the book bible thingy blew my mind

  • @eloeloeheheh8554

    Thank you for this video Sasha. Could you maybe do a video about a writer's notebook? And how to motivate yourself to actually start writing/ how to overcome writers block. Writers block is killing me atm. I'm supposed to write an essay until tomorrow. I could easily write about the topic that was given to me but can't manage to motivate myself enough to sit down and start writing. Or I'm just sitting in front of a blank page.

      I struggle with writer's block as well, it is definitely an issue for me, but you have to remember you are not alone in this, many writers struggle, too. I made a video about overcoming writer's block ^-^. I know how hard it can be for us writers to stay motivated! If you want to check it out it's here :) ruclips.net/video/6BUsIxEI1-g/видео.html I hope it helps!

    Please make a book encyclopedia / writer must haves/ tips videos! If you could make a video about rekindling passion for writing (let's say a person was inspired to write a book when they were younger, but things got in the way like college or some issues or people that said it was a bad idea altogether) how does one keep on writing? What should a beginner author write about?

    @JustMe-es9fj 6 лет назад +7

    I really, really, really, really want that emotion thesaurus. Sometimes I struggle with conveying the the emotions of my characters. This is going on my Christmas wish list, if I can't get it for myself.

  • @beelaberry
    @beelaberry 6 лет назад +26

    Also, have you thought about doing a video on how you named your characters? I am wanting to start writing my novel but am having trouble naming my characters. Especially fantasy names.

    • @theultimatereader5142
      @theultimatereader5142 6 лет назад +5

      I can totally relate, i am currently ransacking the internet looking for unpronounceable fantasy appropriate names

    • @sonichero7
      @sonichero7 6 лет назад +2

      If it helps, I suggest giving characters a name similar to another that plays a role like the you want your character to. As for fantasy names, you could pick out attributes you want the character to have and look up those words in a different language and mix them together or rearrange them to make a name. That's what I do. Hope this helps.

    I haven't been able to write in a long time. These might help a lot. Recently I've been writing stuff in a journal that happens day to day or whatever and it's kind of given me a want to write a book or try to again. I'm sure these will help a lot. Though I'm not a coffee drinker or tea drinker I'm sure warm apple cider will help me 😂 I have a lot of notebooks laying around and more so I'm slowly getting prepared. Thank you Sasha so much for these tips!! I would love to see more that would help and not make my cringey past writing come back 😝

    1. Coffee

    3. An outline of my book (rough plot ideas )
    4. Family tree of characters (depends on if I’m planning to have a sequel or not).
    5. I like to make a playlist for songs that fit the story I’m writing.

    I love my Book bible. For this project I'm working out of a bullet journal (I have a thing for longhand), but I'm thinking about doing something similar, but rearrangeable for my next one. Maybe a traveler's notebook. I don't know.

    THANK YOUUUU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I’m (trying to be) a writer (essentially on Wattpad haha) and this is useful! Especially the Thesaurus (I use the website by the same name to find synonyms) and the Encyclopedia! I would really like it if you did a video about that, because I know I need to do one but I just don’t know where to start or how I should do it so yeah, it would be great if you did that 😅 Again, thank you!

    Great ink pens are one of my writer must-haves. From smooth writing to having vibrant ink and grip support, I'm always on the hunt for new writing ink pens. Also, the Google Drive and MS Office apps are another must-have. I can work on my current manuscripts even when I'm out and about.

I always try and write key information in a notebook I have with my core ideas and points in the story but it becomes so clustered and messy and there is certain characters I don't feel are important enough or developed enough to include... I just get stuck and flustered a lot! And FINALLY a solution!

    A writer must know what characters want and feel cause that is the way you write. You set up a plot and characters interact depending on their emotion towards the scene or their lives. That is the way humans behave

    I like to write fanfiction but the only problem is that I have to catch up with school and barely have spare time. Also, some of my stories are hiatus for a long time since high school. Since the holidays almost coming, I should get back and write more hopefully. I hope you upload more often to your future writers. :)

    This was extremely helpful! I've had more and more story ideas as of late and I'm wanting to commit to writing them. The emotion encyclopedia looks perfect and the book "bible" makes complete sense. Could you please make a part two? Also, did you ever deal with the fear of imperfection when it comes to writing or creating anything in general? I'm slowly but surely putting aside my insecurities but I was wondering if you had any tips?

    I think having a book that you like next to you could go both ways. It could also make you feel “my book will never be as good as this book”
