Kat, I've never seen anything like this. Someone just brainstorming and shooting through ideas on camera and by the end they have figured out what kind of story they're doing. I'm amazed, how did you do this? I'm inspired and ready to write. Hugs, Kat.

You should look into being an English teacher/ creative writing teacher, because you just explained this better than anyone else ever has - school or otherwise. Thank you for this.

Me, applying to grad school 4-5 months ago: Oh yeah, no, I'm not going to have time to do NaNo in the middle of doing a graduate degree *and* holding down a job *and* pursuing my dance training, plus I think I may have fallen out of love with writing and I probably need to spend that time working and searching my creative soul instead of trying to force something out Me, watching this video, feeling November creep ever closer, also feeling a massive resurgence of writing inspiration and general curiosity and creativity: ... well shit

@dazaimaru5799 5 лет назад

This is too relatable

@lesliesanker1354 5 лет назад

You sound like me....after thinking mysef out of writing when I was mid twenties. I lost years that I could have been writing because I was comparing myself to others and I failed to learn plot and structure early-on. BUT now that I studied, practised, and set a daily writing schedule, the writing and editing are natural for me.

@writtenedge4513 5 лет назад

I'm taking my first college creative writing class and our first project is a short story. I'm fairly confident in my ability to generate ideas, but it's always good to be reminded to just have fun with ideas rather than being so straightforward and intentional. This vid couldn't have come at a better time!

@jacktroublemaker3137 Год назад

I hope you make it, just believe in yourself.

@nicolaberry9550 5 лет назад

Wow. I mean... Just wow. This is inspiring to actually see someone brainstorming. It actually helps me understand how casual and easy it really is. Once I started asking questions, even silly ones, I found myself asking more and more. So thank you, really, thank you.

@teatimewitht6937 5 лет назад

I love this process??! Like you literally just created a story off the top of your head like that? I Stan.

@mytbrisoutofcontrol6083 5 лет назад

This is one of the best "writing/storytelling" videos I've seen on youtube, hands down. You probably didn't intend for that to be the outcome, cause, hey, who needs that pressure, amirite?! Still. This was great. Thank you.

@literallysarah 5 лет назад

I know this video is quite a few months old by now, but I've only just discovered it and it has been BEYOND helpful for me! I've been in a fiction-writing slump for about five years now and this video got me inspired to write for the first time since I was 17. I'm writing a novel for my thesis project in my Bachelor's degree and this video has been such a godsend to help inspire me to write. You're awesome, Kat!!!

@erinmariecece 5 лет назад

I'm so sad that this video is already over, I was in love with it. There were so many super interesting ideas and I just wanted to read them all right now. Favorite has got to be the father and teenage girl one though, that would be hilarious! Imagine the son trying to befriend the girl to connect with his dad, and then falling in love with her. OH MY GOSH!
