Oh yeah, agreed big time there! I so need to get to making a video on all I can offer on this topic... But later, one thing at a time.

Yes, that can help, though it doesn't teach anything about applying it artistically. I'd recommend it, but I doubt it alone will lead to breakthroughs for people who are seeking greater insight. But that's just my experience with such advice in a vacuum.

I shared this elsewhere before, I'll copy it here. I'm not saying you have to do it this way, I'm just providing a bit of info. I recommend doing whatever resonates with you most. Everything else, well, I'd recommend getting started first to get stuff down, then seek help from someone you...

I was going to stay out of this since I can say a lot on this subject, but I feel the urge to add a little something. Overall, there are two types of fight scenes in fiction: entertaining and gritty. Think of this as the fight's tone. There can be a mix, but... we'll worry about that later. If...

Did Charisma stuff more in private since it was a different type of thing and required more back and forth, so from the looks of it... I'm all caught up! I'M FREED!

Who says I haven't? ;) I've just made my stance on the topic clear in a video already. Well, also have a dialogue one to make, I just haven't yet because I just haven't felt like it yet.

Damn it, you edited stuff in. :LOL: Anyway, I can't say I'm all that fond of your approach personally, though that's just me. Like, I wouldn't find it helpful. If others think I should stop doing it the way I have and instead do it like how melchi would have things done (and think that way is...

I'm not asking you to be a critic. I'm asking you to be a creator. Show me how you'd teach this type of lesson from the ground up while addressing every single question I asked.

I wrote an episode on the art of dick jokes and how to do them well because nobody was talking about it. :LOL: So yeah, I'll consider seemingly silly concepts if they'll genuinely help people. That said when it comes to helping people... This comment gave me pause today. See, I sometimes...

Hmm... Well, I can see an immediate way to do 2 out of 4 of those. Well, 3, but I'm not sure if there would be much interest in one of those 3. I can't really do one on "why love is the weakest emotion" while it just being geared towards writers yet. Okay, almost all of these are easy for me to...

Oh, you mean character beats? Or just getting the visual down for something? Gotcha, rhetoric devices! Plus I'll be touching on stuff like that a bit this week with cadence.

Easy enough. I actually have tackled this a small bit, though I can go more into detail on how to achieve it. Could you link me to your writing or examples where you feel this? I might be able to better diagnosis this then and see if I already made something that could help you.

At this point, most of you know I run a YouTube channel where I share my expertise to help people better tackle various things. Due to how I am, I have this rich storehouse of information, examples, and so forth. In truth, I own over two thousand books due to how I am. This means I have a lot I...

Yep. This is stuff that happened often when trying to create what ultimately became The Confessions of Cassidy Cain. I did it to myself multiple times with the plot due to how much thought I put into things. I'm pretty certain I can avoid it now, but it is what it is.

This honestly isn't bad. Raw in some respects, but it isn't bad. To get started, focusing on prose alone immediately, work on your continuity and flow between things. I gave you the continuity video already, so see if that helps out at all. Also, feel free to ask any questions about it. I'd...

What in particular do you wish to improve as a writer? What do you consider yourself bad at in specific? I can toss out suggestions, but I want to tailor the suggestions to you and your issues as opposed to just throwing out suggestions. I can even point out specific things if you like.

Same scene at different parts of the conversation. The precise moment doesn't matter. Both contain the word "just" in them, but one case I decided to keep while the other I decided to remove. Hence why it fits the context of don't blindly apply this, but it helps to know.

In the spirit of the topic, this video is the shortest since it's concise. I'm finally almost done with this series of videos on prose. I'm so tired of this, to be honest. I need to do something different... Something that can maybe drive numbers even, as I feel this will be most useful when...
