Thank you. This is so helpful.
As a perfectionist and notorious over-planner, I really really love your methodology for approaching storytelling. I have started writing my current book so many times, but every time I come up against something I haven’t quite figured out, I end up absolutely overhauling everything. I think involving this seeding method in my early strategy will let me get over that hump a little more successfully.
Your content is always incredible. I swear, in a year, every single new writer will know who you are.
That would be incredible. I'm already amazed that the channel has grown to where it is with how slowly I put content out.
I am all too familiar with the compulsion to get everything right and the paralysis that can come with it, so I've had to adapt how I look at things. I'm so glad to hear the videos have been helping you.
If you're interested, I do have a newsletter I send out more frequently than I post videos. The topics vary from mental health to writing techniques to tabletop RPG nonsense. I also try to respond faster to questions I get back from readers through my newsletter. (crrowenson.com/newsletter-for-friends/)
@@themagicengineer5314 the speed is rendered irrelevant by the quality.
How does one create a story from a genre based component? Is that like defining the specific subgenre?
Yeah, or by specifying how you want to address or subvert a trope or aspect of the genre element.
Say you're doing fantasy and your idea is to use the Chosen One trope, except the protagonist was actually the 3rd choice as the chosen one.
Or you know you want to do Urban Fantasy focusing on Angels and Demons.
Those are all specific enough that they can help inform and direct your exploration and development of the other aspects of your story
@themagicengineer5314 ok that makes sense tysm
I really like this approach! I’ve never thought of starting this way but it seems very intuitive.
It's taken me a long time to consolidate it down into this concept. I'm glad it's making sense to you :)
