Christopher's tips:

2.understand everything about the language you're writing in
3. outline your story and your characters before you start writing
4. find a good editor and listen to them
5. write about what you love
6. Plagiarize
Hey Chris! I just wanted to let you know, the Inheritance Cycle is a major part of my life. I can't count the amount of times I've read all four (I'd guess it's well over a hundred), and anytime I'm feeling down about anything, I crack open Eldest or Brisingr and then read the other 3! They're my ultimate comfort zone. Love you man!
I got the read, read, read part down. The problem is I love reading so much I forgot to do the whole write, write, write!
same.
This is sooooo true for me rn. Too much reading that once I’m doing it I’m like “eh I’ll write later”.
Great video Chris! I love how he just has swords lying around everywhere XD
OKAY! Where did that BIG book come from!!! I Want one
This was great. The awkward starts before some of the points are nothing but endearing too lol thank you
Am I hallucinating? In the first scene, there was the Inheritance cycle in Czech on the table, right? Does Christopher Paolini speak Czech, or he has it just because of the beautiful cover?
That is a freaking good question. I searched a lot and kinda hard but I didn't managed to find anything useful or informative so I don't know. It's sad because this question was laying in my mind for a long time.

Well, yeah, if I had to guess I'd say it's because of the cover. One can never be sure, though.
In fact, I almost didn't realize what I was seeing, I only thought: "Oh, I've seen that book in the bookstore." Nothing more. But something just felt odd, I figured out moments after.
Even so, like you, I'd love to know the truth.
This has been insightful.
I like that phrase :: "It's good to understand the rules before you break them." and my reply to that was:: "Because you're *gonna* break them." (at least in some ways)
Handwrite vs Typing. Pro e cons?
Love you hire me for the Disney plus Eragon show as Eragon #1 Fan!

What a great guy
It should be said that writing tips, number 3 especially, should be taken as they work. Many people are discovery writers (George RR Martin and King famously) so outlining doesn’t work for them.
I only have a general premise - I don't know exactly what I'm going to write before I write it. No outline. No plan.
That’s fine. That’s what Stephen King and George Martin do. Do what works for you. Sanderson outlines his stories but not his characters.
Oh you're jacked, wow
Lama lama sabac thanie (spelled how it sounds)? Father forgive them for they no not what they do. There's one back at ya. The Reader. Jeanie
What the fuck was that about
