"avoid alliteration" right after alliterating
Technically, it's assonance, so he's still on the right path🤷🏽♀️
it all depends on what you're writing and the style of it. If you need to sound more poetic and musical, you can make good use of assonance. You only need to avoid useless repetitions, but whatever you do purposefully could work.
Have you ever thought about being a part time comedian? Because this was a hilarious piece of satire.
Thanks! It was fun to make, so I don't think it'll be the last video of its kind.
You are Hella underrated!
😂 Thanks! Hope you enjoyed the video.
"Or any other writing devices that could make your writing,... interesting😬". That was probably my favorite part, very entertaining video!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
I was laughing all the way through. Last one was my favourite because my brain has been nagging at me without the answer (I'm schizophrenic and intrusive thoughts hurt)
Glad you found it entertaining!
literally me
I understand this is supposed to be comedy. Genuinely good advice though.
😆 Thanks for watching!
Wow im surprised with how underrated you are
This is hilarious, and actually serves as a good lesson on what not to write
3:23 what If I want that but good?
Are you in your TWA arc? Lol 😂
It is a shame TWA has seemingly retired from RUclips now
Anarchy...😂
I loved this XD
Thanks! I'm sure you found my advice very helpful. 😆

Yes-or should I say... yas 🙄. Much to my chagrin, the internet will never let me forget it. I still find it funny that that's what I may be most well known for 😂
