I also run the Nostalgia Train Book Club, where we cover YA and MG mega hits of the past. You can re-read a childhood favorite or discover a cultural touchstone you may have missed out on. Then we chat about them through the lens of being a writer and see how they have stood the test of time.
Hi Dear, I hope you are well. I saw that your RU-vid videos are very lovely and very helpful. You have enough of the videos but your video is not getting views because there is some problem with your video's. Your description and Thumbnail are all right but your video have no tags. For this reason, Your SEO score is very poor (0% out of 100) and you need optimization for better result. If you update the video's then the views of the video will increase. It helps to grow your videos views and reach your content to targeted audiences. If you want you can discuss with me...
I'm halfway through the book and am watching you tube vids to see what others make of it. I am listening to the audiobook and 8t's hard to get my head around, but I love that you said the ruby story is boring in places ( not a direct quote) , but I'm rel ieved to remember that genre is also a reason why people read a book, not just the emotional quality. People love certain settings and situations, and " care" to read the book for that reason, not necessarily because they need to care about a character I love the Misheld belief thing and they 'why" ...it's very helpful, absolutely. I just am trying to unbrainwash myself from days ago thinking I had to do everything her way I 've had moments listening to that and thinking about my " planster" outline and notic8ng I've already got it happening the way she is talking about, like what you were saying about how you had the " win" part of your book. I think what I'm saying is, she doesn't give writers any credit lol. Like ...good books existed before Story Genius so it's not 100% necessary to do it her way, but you feel like it is listtening to her. A bit like a religion lol. I am grateful to her ...just feel confuused now .
I feel that you have a short breath, which was my problem becouse i was a shy kid didn't speak alot, spend only five seconds underwater, then i searched youtube for long breath exercise for divers, and now i can stay underwater for about 4 minutes, and this helped me with my speech,
Scriptwriting for Animation Stan Hayward I found this book way ago in the library and it was one of the best books about writing and very simple and clear, it took me an hour to read, and i still use its guidance in my writing till now
I picked up the first book on sale ages ago but haven’t gotten round to reading it yet, the list of topics on the second book looks really interesting though! 👀
I read both Volume 1 and 2 in the span of 1-2 weeks, and I definitely enjoyed Volume 1 better probably because I found the topics to be more applicable to some of my wips. Volume 2 was definitely more in depth, and maybe I was feeling a little burnt out when I reached the middle of it because I found myself skimming over some of the info from time to time. But it's definitely something I plan on returning to it when I feel it'll be necessary/when I'm in the mood. 💘💜
I totally agree with you! This series is one of the rare craft resources that I see myself picking up again and again. For me, some chapters are more applicable than others, but that has more to do with the project I'm working on, and maybe I'll be glad for the other chapters in the future :)
Gunna embarrass myself on the internet again by saying: I was today old when I learned that's what that seal was I saw on books like Holes lol This sounds like a lot of fun and is going to be my double excuse to read The Graveyard Book lol
