My name is Abbie Emmons I teach writers how to make their stories matter by harnessing the power and psychology of storytelling, transforming their ideas into a masterpiece, and creating a lifestyle that makes their author dreams come true.
Story isn’t about “what happens” - it’s about how what happens affects and transforms the characters. I believe that there is an exact science (a recipe, if you will) behind a perfect story. And if you know what ingredients you need, you can create your own perfect story with ease and confidence. That’s what we talk about every week on this channel - and if it’s something you’re into, be sure to subscribe and join this community!

hi
you should put this time stamp in the description too, so the time stamp will appear on the video :) good playlist btw.
this is so cool! the book im writing at the moment doesn't have a traditional villiain; she is causing problems but she is only trying to help. Then when she is able to communicate that, she is exiled, but without her, everything gets worse. I love this playlist!

To be anything is to sacrifice. Sacrifice all those things you could have been. There is no path forward that isn't build on corpses of your other possibilities.

A quote I made since everyone else is doing it and I like words: "Don't mistake my kindness for ignorance, nor my silence for giving in. There is power in self control."
well, after some testing for myself i can attest for this, some say when they try to intimidate you that you should intimidate them back or just submit, i disagree, give them a cold emotionless look, caught everyone off guard every time, they always thing you can only be agressive or submissive, when you just chose to be neither, they all get shocked
@@arthurwolf4344 🤝 I praise you
I used to be really good with words, then something broke so....
So now I can say that I woke up like this.
When a man seeths and whispers, "Enough". When his heart & soul turn cold..they stay that way.
He undergoes a transformation I to something he never could have imagined. Dangerous.
"you either die as a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself turning into a villain"
Many of the people idolized as heroes in earlier eras of real life history literally *would* be considered villains by today's standards. Take Thomas Jefferson, for example. Were he still alive today he would probably be in prison for human trafficking and child molestation due to his not only owning slaves, but impregnating his slave, Sally Hemmings, when she was under 18.
standards always change. people are a slave to their own beliefs, beliefs are formed by a populace and a lifetime of experience. It is easy for us to judge others but whos to say we would be any different given the circumstances.
I would like to think I would have been different, I hope I would have. However I only know that I am the way I am because of when and where I grew up. Bias is scary and it is hard for us to realize when we are biased.
This is an important part of disassociation that genZ has failed on in particular. We need to take the positives from these people and move on. It is okay to acknowledge what they did or thought that was wrong, however we shouldn't besmirch what they did for the world because of a faulty time in history. These people weren't the problem the world was the problem. These were good men, not great men. They were fallible, and in the end they probably regretted what they did.
The great ones were the ones that sought change and a better future. Those were the great men. If only we could know their names.@@ARKdeEREH

"You saved me from the flames and gave me a chance to live.
I opened my heart and gave you all I could give.

"Y-You?" stammered a man's voice, exhausted and broken. "How could --"
"Hm, I wonder -- how could I?" the woman pondered. "Maybe after years of begging for help, I was done taking silence for an answer?"
"People _have_ tried!"
Insane laughter broke the earnest atmosphere, ringing sharply through the air. "What, to help me? Oh, no; no, they've taught me how to suppress my feelings. How to sit still and be quiet," the woman was breathing heavily now, caressing the blade of her knife.
"I still don't understand," his voice broke as he stared at the woman he loved. "You could never do this to anyone,"
Her eyes flicked down to the lifeless body, and up to the man. "I just did,"

"I'm only saving people from what i had to go through and i'm the monster?.."💔
no you are just a cry baby that needs to grow up.
His family were considered blessed and godly. They had inherited the most powerful element.
Fire
It was an element that was considered untamable. Most people strayed away from learning the fire element, but not his family. His ancestors mastered it and were given respect. Their descendants were taught discipline and were mentally and emotionally trained to handle this powerful element.
One spark was all it needed for his family to become burned.
It was a terrible incident, his father was badly poisoned and nearly killed everyone in their house. He could recall the screams his family let out as his father released powerful heat of fire.
Just because they mastered it, didn't mean they were immune.
His mother had managed to save him by shielding him from his father's powerful fire blast. Once the carnage was done, the smelt of human fleshing burning was seared into his mind.
The people that worshipped his family, turned their backs on him. They treated him like scum.
Monster
Is what they called him.
Please I'm only a child. I'm only 8 years old!
He cried for help, but no one came to it. His once friends turned their backs on him, no longer extending a hand. The young kindling saw how cruel the world could be. Fire was supposed to warm people up. It was supposed to make people safe from the dark.
The child now resided in a cave, it was cold and damp. He was hungry and tired. He could feel the small spark within him. It called out for revenge. He shook his head, he could not use his powers for evil. He did not want people to fear the fire element. But he wanted revenge for whoever poisoned his father. He wanted to kill the person who was responsible for killing his family. The boy cried out when a huge bursts of fire escaped his body and filled the entire cave. He was shocked at this sudden burst of power that came from him. He calmed his breathing, remembering the teaching his parents had taught him.
"Why do you suppress your powers young one?" The cave started to rumble as a low and powerful voice rang out. A large shadow appeared and the boy was surprised. A red colored dragon appeared in front of him. It's underbelly was a colored gold but it's horns were black. It looked down on him with its gold colored eyes.
The boy steadied his breathing. "Because I am a danger to everyone. I harness the elemental power of fire."
"Indeed you do," smoke came out of the dragon's nose, "fire is a powerful and destructive element. Many people fear it because it is hard to control."
The boy nodded, "Yes it is. I thought my family had control of it..." he looked down, trying to hold back the tears, "but in the end they were burned by it."
"Yes they were, but not you. You were spared."
"My mother shielded me."
The dragon tilted its head, "She did, but I'm sure other children were protected by their parents. Were they not?" The boy nodded. "And yet you survived. Why is that?"
"Because the gods thought to punish my family by keeping me alive. For me to see the failure of my family, who thought they could tame fire."
"Perhaps, or perhaps the gods themselves have betrayed your family."
The boy glared at the mighty beasts, "They would not! The gods are just and kind."
"But they were not kind to you, were they?" The dragon moved its head close to the boy. "Dragons like me boy, we are the gods of this world. And I have seen them scheme their evil schemes." The dragon straightened its body. "You see boy, my element was never meant to be tamed, it was only meant to cause destruction. When my fellow elemental dragons saw what your family had done, they had begun to prepare your lineage's downfall. It all started with me being caged and banished from the sky realm."
The boy could not believe it, the gods not only betrayed his family but their fellow dragon. The boy was mumbling something but the dragon could not hear it.
"Speak up boy."
The boy snapped his head up, his eyes filled with fire. "You help me burn this world to the ground, and I will help you burn the heavens."
The dragon let out a laugh and it's golden eyes glowed brightly and a red aura surrounded the powerful fire dragon. "Very well boy. Let the world know, that fire cannot be controlled. Let us color the world in ash."

Why live in the light, when all it ever did was hurt me. The darkness is so much easier. It is sweet and let's me forget all my Pain. From today on I won't keep continuing the hard way, but I will finally change my direction.
why is the right way always more ineficient than the wrong one? why the light hurts so much more than the darkness?

They said madness brings many things but it also brings the lover to their knees.
Loving a person is easy but loving a beast is like loving a death.
But when the beast starts loving you that means death starts loving you.
He went there to kill the beast who was going to come out on a full moon night and will destroy everything even his family.
But he fails and fell in love with the beast.
The beast was not cursed but he was cursed and it led him to touch the darkness of death that embraced him.
But the story didn't end their fate was playing with them. They were born again and this time the beast was not a beast like in his past life he was a psychopath who was ready to burn the world for his love.
This is a beast and a beauty retelling story in a gay version.

My villain quote towards the so called "hero': am i a monster for trying to survive?am i vengful for returning the 'favor' you have once done for me? You and everyone else have turned their backs on me when i needed help the most, you broke my mind, corrupted my sanity, crossed my wires and MURDERED ME !!!..... Now its time i return the favor
this was an assignment for school and i thought it fit:
The date is November 22, 1879, it’s about 9 am and a crowd of citizens was surrounding the royal palace, waiting impatiently for the news. Murmurs were all you could hear. Then, the chamberlain came out with a joyful smile.
“The Queen’s son is born!” He shouts. The King gracefully marches in alongside the chamberlain as everyone begins to cheer.
“Oh! The King is here!” someone said from the crowd. Everybody kneeled in unison.
He smiled, “Just this once, you can act casual. No need to kneel. Don’t get used to it, though.”
The crowd slowly stood up. Confused, but not questioning his authority. Someone raised his hand hesitantly. The king looked over and nodded.
“Uh, what will the baby be named, sir?” He said.
The King sighed happily, “Well, we’ve been thinking about the name for a long time, and Artemis is the name we’ve decided on.”
“Prince Artemis is born!” the crowd says.
I’m sure that’s the only time they’ve acknowledged me for me. Now it’s the year 1901, and I’ve been overlooked for far too long. It’s time for some changes around here.
“Artemis?” The King raises his voice at me, breaking me out of my trance. “Can you go fetch me a glass of water? I’ve asked multiple times.”
I slightly flinch. After comprehending what my father told me, I stood up and nodded.
“Sorry.”
“Artemis, why are you always so quiet?”
I sigh, “Maybe it’s because I have nothing to say.”
“Now, I know that’s a lie. Your head is always in the clouds. There’s one thing you can manage to speak verbally, right?”
If I began speaking about them, I would be sent to a mental hospital. I opened the large, marble-carved doors and walked through. Walking to follow my task, I blank out. I start over-analyzing about how I’m walking, one foot in front of the other. One-Two, One-two, it’s like a ritual. Walk in this specific way. This is the only way you’ll walk, or you’re considered a freak. Everybody that doesn’t copy the King’s actions exactly, 24/7 is considered a freak. This family needs to change the kingdom.
Then I got to the kitchen! I always space out when I go into that long hallway. Odd. I lugged one of the many heavy jugs of water that we’ve collected and placed it near the wooden cupboard, where we keep the cups. I was sure to take the King’s special glass cup, that only he drank out of. It was about double the size of the other cups. It’s the only cup he uses.
Like a spoiled child.
I placed the cup and carefully poured the water into it. My arms were shaking, trying to control the jug. I’ve been attempting to work out more often, but for now, I’m still weak. Once I filled it up to a reasonable level, I used my knee to support the jug as I fastened the lid. Once it was finally secured, I let my arms drop. I panted like a dog as I angrily put the jug back. I rolled my eyes as I regained my balance. I looked over the corner to make sure nobody saw me. Luckily, nobody was there. I’m sure I made lots of noise, though. Now I’ve got to think of a fib. The hallway will give me plenty of time.
I carefully held the cup as I kept my eyes looking ahead.
“I’ll just say I tripped over the jugs. Yes, that’s fine,” I whispered to myself.
I returned back into my father’s room and handed him the glass.
“Thank you, Art, a glass is just what I need right now,” The King said as he took a sip of water.
“No problem, dad.”
I hate when he calls me Art. I’m not sure why, but I despise how my name sounds in nicknames. Refer to me as either Artemis or nothing. Ironically, I’ve been drawing my entire life. I’m great for my age. I went to my room and grabbed my sketchbook. Realism portraits are my specialty, but I’m learning how to draw differently. I sat near the edge of my bed, near my mirror so that I could study my face. I held my pencil as I looked at myself. I’ve drawn myself before, but each time, something feels different. I notice something new about myself just by looking in a mirror.
I have curly copper colored hair, with one rebellious curl that stays in the middle of my face. I have grey eyes. People always mistake them for blue, though. I counted how many freckles I had, because each time, I somehow find a new one. I leaned into the mirror and started.
“.. Is that even a freckle?!” I thought to myself. There was a spot that was right below my right eye, which seemed too big to just be a freckle. I rubbed over it and it didn’t seem like one. It must be a mole. I leaned back slightly until I stopped. Looking at my reflection, memories came flooding back to me again. The memories of not being my own person, only The King’s son. I was never Prince Artemis to them. Soon they would know my name. Soon they would understand who they’re overlooking.
Interesting stuff, Artemis even suits him
I was trying to find a playlist with this exact vibe earlier this week - seeing this posted today feels like fate 😊
I've seen this on my feed so many times and never knew Des Rocs had placed on this list either (since his music almost screams villain vibes). Brand new fave for the fics!
This is so damn glorious..... praise you for giving us this immaculate energy!
you arent a "villain" just a cry baby. grow up.
"A child who is not embraced by the village will make a sick villain playlist about wanting to burn it down. Because it's edgy"
-African proverb. Probably
XD
Sounds like a thing
"A child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth"
-African proverb. Probably
The first playlist where I enjoyed every song on the highest point. It was musical ecstasy🤤Thank you!
The fire deliciously licked the side of the building. Screams could be heard from inside, gut wrenching and desperate. The villain smirked, flicking her lighter on and off, toying with the flame. No one was going to stop her. As she walked away she threw her lighter into the pile of fuel, and kept walking as the building went up in smoke, that sinister smile never leaving her lips.
some people, don't care about rational things, like money, power, or a good life, some people, only want to see the circus burn, not for money, not for power, not for a better life, just to send a message: "im here, and im burning like i've been burned"
"Why should I apologize for being a monster? The world didn't apologize for making me this way."
This playlist is giving me the perfect vision of a baddas couple, the alpha and his luna, leaders of a pack, walking down the street after she unalived a delta to protect herself and shes still in her wolf form.
I'm feeling so lonely and alone, been left outside and making so many bad thoughts about myself, but somehow these songs make me feel better. Giving me a reason to not give up. Kind of strange though since it's like a villain playlist. I fell in love with this playlist, especially with the first two songs. Thank you so much for creating this playlist. Listening to this, reading comments, or reading my book it makes me feel better each night.
Fire, something I have known so intimately one could say it is a part of me. So I was unsurprised when I rose from the flames unscathed, the Hero though, oh they were surprised.
H: "What? How is this possible? What have you done?!!", disbelief morphing ever so quickly into anger as it often does.
"Your not the first to face me, you won't be the last. Did you think I was still here by blind luck? No, here you are the fool.", I say as the flames dim to a flicker and then fade to embers.
H: "Flame cleanses, why should the flame not have cleansed an evil thing like you?"
"Isn't it obvious? I'm not evil, there's nothing here to cleanse, not in me. I was made by the fire, molded by the heat, and scorched by the embers!". Horror slowly spreads across her face, the gods lied to her it seems, just like all the others.
H: "What are you?", fear makes her voice tremble, but that question THAT ONE QUESTION, is the last one I want to hear from a puppet given the title Hero.
"What am I?! I AM WHAT IS MADE WHEN THE UNWANTED IS CAST INTO THE FLAMES, I AM WHAT REMAINS WHEN THE LAST SHRED OF HOPE HAS TURNED TO ASH IN YOUR HANDS! and I will be here long after you're gone.". Flames ignite and spread across my skin, burning in familiar channels along my scared flesh. A single tear makes its way down my chin before evaporating in the heat. The Hero's trap, crafted to trap me and her together so that she may end the existence I have forged for myself from the god's misconduct, has become her tomb, and she knows it. "The words I was told when cast into the flames of the world still ring true, ironically enough.", I raise my hands to the sky as the fire burns hotter, spreading across the ground and pooling in my hands.
"It was never meant to be..."
I burned once more, and this time the world came with me.
I just thought of this
"home is were the heart is.... I don't have a home"
"I am done being the hero and helping! Sacrificing myself for others.. It's time to see how much you are sacrificing for me."
They let me down. I will now take them down
The first song: I will be the one to survive
My villain who literally gave himself the title: The Survivor: “Well, well, well. 😏”
cringe. grow up.
Only behind the safe confined of your hard work are you given the privilage to watch the world burn as u sit in comfort.
Without it you'll simply be the next entertainment for the ones working harder than you are.
There's a pleasure on others demise as a reminder of your hard work keeping you from becoming the victim.
"It takes courage to succumb to the darkness, but weakness to exist in the light.
Us villains are not evil, we are just overly ambitious, the devil never gives up you know."
The best comment ever ❤❤❤❤❤
You are halfway correct, it does not take courage to succumb to the "darkness", but it does to embrace it despite the odds against you. Never underestimate the "light" and the influence it can have. But alas there are rules in the light, but not in the abyss thus an advantage for the cold at heart.
it takes even more courage to stand up to a devil that never gives up than to give in
"a villain is nothing more than a moron, having lost all ties to Reality in chase of their perverted Goals, oblivious to everybody but themselfs they wander in the Shadows too afraid to step into the light"
@@mrnord4096 nice try, but anyone with some critical thinking skills can dissect and easily debate your statement (even my statement has some fallacies).👹
["What are you waiting for?" he asked with the challenge in his eyes and a gun to his head "Your victory is just one pull away."
The hero remained unfazed, the steel in her eyes clearly showed her firm will. There was no anguish in them; she would not do what was needed.
"If you won't shoot me, I will find a way to shoot you. You're giving me plenty of time."
"Why am I alive, then?" she baited, at last, obviously underestimating him. He couldn't blame her; he was in quite a predicament.
"Because it's not just about killing. It's about the message it sends to those watching." He smiled, showing his teeth, coated in blood. "I won't let your death go to waste."
Her sneer would haunt his dreams to the end of his hopefully short life.
"You are sick."
"No, I am a visionary. There's nothing that life can offer us. If there's no purpose in life, we must find one in death. I do."
"Why should I kill you, then? No one's watching. You don't need to die." Yes, he could rot in jail instead. No, that wouldn't do.
"You see, it's different with me," he leaned in, forcing her armed hand to fall back "I died so many times that another one wouldn't even matter."]
This playlist is fire, no matter if it comes to just the sound or giving inspiration
one may embrace death before they can trully embrace life
Time to write a compelling villain scene now.
"Everyone is the hero in their own story," the wind blowing against the thin brimmed hat did little to phase their focus as a smile spread across the face of the lone gun wielder looking down the barrel of a 6 shooter. The dust didn't even warrant a second's hesitation as the hat wearer quickly pulled out their own gun and braced their arm for the inevitable recoil from the rifle shot.
"Do you really believe that?" was the only response that echoed across the asphalt of the empty desert gas station that soaked in the sun as it glared down from directly overhead. The rifle was on the hood of the dust covered car, the smell of burnt rubber and low octane came off the hot metal as it sat slowly warming under the covered roof.
"Maybe for you, but not for me, I knew where I stood long before this happened," again the smile seemed to grow wider, "you could say I lived this hell before it even got here, and I've just been waiting for the world to catch up." the wind carried the words farther then the pistol wearer expected since the world that was from Before was now covered under ash and sand. Only the strong survived in the world they were in now.
"If you aren't the hero, then what are you? why are you doing this?" the rifle was waving unsteadily as the heat picked up between the waves of wind that had once been a busy freeway road. There had to be a way out of this, after all that had happened, it couldn't end like this.
"I am the last one standing," the words were spoken softly and carried across the gap between the two of them as the heavy crack of a gun going off echoed across the open land.
nobody cares.

I'm writing an article on data recovery while listening to this playlist. This is really keeping me motivated to finish my task.
Oh! This is perfect I'm just about to get back to a part that's working on my villain. 😃
I stumbled upon your playlist as I was looking for some background music to listen to while I paint. Thank you for taking the time to make this playlist.

"There was something that was hidden inside his mind not
love or emotions but something that can make others shake to the core.
There is something bigger than darkness and that was his smile the sinister smile that appears every time he hunts someone on the darkest night when the kingdom was fallen asleep".
Her eyes widened in terror, behilding the monster that her lover had become. "Please," She pleaded, "What made you this way? You were so...." "Kind? Loving? Blided by my morality?" The dark figure grebbed her throat. His words hurt the young woman more than the gleaming dagger he stabbed into her chest. "In one moment of cruel weaness I allowed myself to lose sight of my true potential! I let you pull me back into the light." He twisted the blade. agonizing pain shot through th girl's body and she screamed for help. No one heard her. No one came. "Because of you I lost everything," The an continued, "My home, my respect, my army. Your love has ruined me." The figure released the knife, leaving the cruel blade jammed between her ribs. "You and your friends have made my life a hell. Now you shall walk through it yourself and feel the pain I've hidden all these years." The girl watched the shadowy form of her lover walk through the hazy smoke as ruby tongues of flame invaded the coridor. She tried to tear the knife from her chest, but did not have the strength.
(Just an amature writer trying to guage intrest by responding whith insiration from sound tracks. Hope you enjoy.)
our story could have been so different, but you went and messed everything up, took that knife and stabbed me in the back, took everything i had, went back to your friends and laughed, now, if you try to break me again, i'll burn you down
nobody cares.
I did enjoy it ! Continue !
THIS is an amazing playlist! Thank you. I will write my story to this ❤

nobody cares about your trash story
I love comments that seem straight out of a book. I started writing a book and that's where I get my inspiration.
"I was born to die, just like you. Don't blame me for you dying, it's just fate"
Yes! This is perfect for what I'm currently working on, thank you!
Easily the best Playlist I've found for choreographing scenes in my head so far. Thank you
"You may not recognize me now but you will later, in your nightmares."
"Let the lord of chaos rule."
I love you, Abbie! I had RUclips randomly playing your videos and this Playlist popped up. Instantly two major scenes developed in my mind that answered a series of questions I've been struggling with in my series for a year, while listening to the first 3 songs. Now I can finally write them!
Perfect timing as always Abbie!
-"For decades, I have lived in this world, and I realised that this world doesn't need a hero..."
- "Then what does it need??"
- "ME."
"You say justice will prevail? Of course it will! Whoever wins will become justice!"
This is by far my favorite villain playlist and just discovered some new fav songs also in the process! Thank you!
If my current novel could have a tagged motto to it, it would be THIS !
" You took away everything from me, now watch me take everything away from you,watch me reduce it to nothing but ashes"
"Do you really believe you are innocent?'
"Yes."
Then prove it. Strike me down,"
"You-I can't..."
"Why not? Prove to them. Prove to them all, the people who trusted you and confided in you, that you truly are the person you say you are."
A little convo i imagined the villain in my book would say to the mentor of the hero.
Your music compilations are amazing!!! Please keep going! You’re awesome 🎉
I love your playlists! Especially the villain themed ones🖤
Same, they are my go-to for tackling villain arcs…in fact the villain of my story is starting to become the protagonist as a result lol
@@auroraasterix that's actually amazing!
I've discovered that a quiet evening with some acoustic tunes is the perfect recipe for recharging my energy.
They called him a monster and treated him as one, but I know that he was not a monster he was an angel who saved me once from them, going against them.
But when they tried to harm me he showed his real monster side but the fact was there was he and nobody alive to tell call him that.
Omgomgomg thanks for this playlist!!! Listening to this now ♡
"u can mock my attitude but u cannot mock my personality my personality is mine but ur thinking is mine neither"
This playlist is amazing. I love it
"Villains are broken heroes."
When the good guy turns evil, even the devil shivers 🔥
I have also used music as an inspiration for writing my stories (mostly classical music and classic rock). Is this a common trait in writers? Abbie, maybe this is something to explore in a future RUclips episode.
I love your playlists! 💕
That is so cool, usually I always find the same songs in these kind of playlist, this is the first time I discover a bunch of them in one playlist only! Thanks you so much! I might listen to this video in loop for a while now!
I was not prepared for the raw power😮 thank you for sharing this!
please recommend books with the same vibe as this playlist 💕
“They all called me a monster for years, and finally, when I was at my lowest, they pushed me down again. It was about time I pushed back.”
Darkness Falls - UNSECRET
IS SO DAMN GOOD, I CAN'T FIND IT ANYWHERE ELSE SLOWED + REVERBED, I WANT IT ON SPOTIFY OR SMTH LIKE DAMN
this is fantastic and the best playlist I've ever heard
