    As someone who is intrigued by a ton of book series but will never have time to read them all, a whiteboard “Daniel explains” series sounds great 😄

  • @GlaurungtheRed
    @GlaurungtheRed 22 дня назад +221

    Yes absolutely I'd watch the hell out of whiteboard plot synopsis

      Does that make fans ‘gluons’? Are gatherings ‘glueballs’?

    Thank you for this video, Daniel. As a writer myself (though currently unpublished), hoping to get an agent and break into the traditional space, I'm quite invested in your journey. Your new idea does sound very interesting, and I hope it pans out beautifully for you. I'll pick up your other books in the meantime to see what I've been missing. Best of luck, brother!

    This was some awesome insight, Daniel! Thank you for sharing the transparency of your progress.

    Best of luck on getting published!
    I would love to see the whiteboard approach to a book analysis. But more than anything, I want a deep dive into the entire publishing process. Maybe you could do a long video comparing all the steps to the different ways to get published.

    Appreciate this breakdown as someone trying to learn the trad industry and be published someday. I hope you stick with what inspires you and don't get too caught up in being marketable. Even though that is important, you being passionate about the story is the most important thing.

    Very informative! Best of luck the trad route - I know it's harder, but it sounds like you have a solid plan and agent in place, and with your built-in audience, you can definitely be successful. I'll buy the book because of the LOST reference lol

    I was excited for Better Dead, and loved the preview. I hope it will be released eventually as a book. Seeing your preview of Best Deader, I'm even more excited. I agree, your horror sequences are what I enjoyed most in Lawful Times, and look forward to a story where that's the focus.

  • @micaylalynn9281
    @micaylalynn9281 22 дня назад +1

    I'd watch white board explanations more than reviews! As it stands, I skip a lot of reviews for books I haven't, and don't plan to, read. But a breakdown of a book I'll never read? I'm in!

  • @kr4119

    I REALLY enjoyed this video and knowing your possible future book ideas. The white board concept is really great as well. I am surprised you mentioned horror without mentioning berserk, seeing how invested you are in the series. I can't wait to see what inspirations from Berserk will be in your horror series.

  • @linamishima
    @linamishima 14 дней назад

    The whiteboard concept works well - just watched the genre video before this one and enjoyed it :) An idea is not just explain the plot of a book or series, but maybe talk about inspirations, the author's background, and maybe even peek behind the scenes and talk about why an author wrote something the way they did (being an author yourself with insight into author-y techniques)

    You can never go wrong with white board shenanigans. Kudos to you for the process you're going through. I have just complete my first novel, an epic high fantasy. It's currently in editing and soon to be in beta reader phase. I'm so excited! And seeing your progress and process and rollercoaster ride is great. I wish the very best for you, good sir!

  • @kiraazun
    @kiraazun 22 дня назад

    Between following your journey and authors like Brandon Sanderson who are super open about their process and progress on books (secret projects excluded of course) it's really awesome to get this look into the behind the scenes of being an author. Personally it's something that I have never considered as a career path, but as a lifelong lover of the medium, it's been super insightful to get this peek behind the curtains. Keep up the awesome work, Better Dead sounds like something that would be right up my alley and I hope to see it on shelves one day in the near future!

  • @infinitenumberofmonkeys3738

    I would watch you give landscaping tips. You're just genuinely entertaining. I don't know/care about 3/4 of what you talk about in your videos but I watch every one from beginning to end.
    Congrats! It's awesome when good people get rewarded!

  • @studiozealot
    @studiozealot 22 дня назад

    That whiteboard explanation video format sounds delightful, I'd watch!
    Also huge congrats on all the inspiration and direction for your book! That definitely sounds like a marketable concept (weird as it is to phrase it that way) as somebody who's too skittish to play spooky games, but loves studying FromSoft lore. Best of luck on the push towards 100k!!

    Congratulations on the agent signing. Your book idea sounds epic and wish you the best of luck getting it published!
    Yes, I think it is a great idea to do some plot summary/reveals on the white board. Some booktubers do it with a wall and fan art, the whire board can be a fun new take on that!
    Keep going man, you are killing it!
