No story ideas? - TRY THIS 

WOWWW!! I'm blown away. Longest message to the shortest story I've heard. ❤

The current book I am writing came from an idea when I put a RU-vid Ambiance video on. I had my book to write in waiting for inspiration. The video was of a cabin in the deep woods with heavy rainfall. I could see my character by the warm fireplace with a hot tea and book. Then there was heavy pounding on the door. I didn't have a clue what the book was going to be about back then but that's how it started.

My only problem with the music/video method is that I end up falling down the bottomless rabbit hole of trying to find the "perfect” combination. As a visually-oriented thinker, though, when it’s right it’s the absolute best method for me. I subbed because I like your thinking. All the best in your writing.

I said it once and i'll say it again. People need to watch your videos. You are so inspirational, so motivational and help people, like myself, who want to become writers. While this video was short, it was really enjoyable to watch. The way you combined the warm coloured sky with the forest, as well as the message regarding the afterlife, then writing a short story revolving around a forest fire and the death of someone the protagonist cared about, that was genius and the story was very short but was really appealing to read and listen to. I haven't done any work on my own personal story for a few months as I've lost the motivation for it. It felt like a chore to get on with it as I had a few scenes planned out in my head but they were all in the second and third act. However, I couldn't get there without the first scene and that's why I stopped working for months, because I didn't know how to make the first scene appealing but, not as exciting as later scenes (Since the story starts off in a Primary School in a village called Dullwick: Dull as in boring and Wick is a british suffix of a village surrounded by farmland). The setting later in the story is a new country filled with people who were gifted with superpowers and the landscape from the cities to the countryside was far more magnificent than the small, bland village that the story starts off in (From that transition from Bland village to Magnificent superhero country, you can kinda see why I don't want to write the first scene since I have so many more exciting scenes later in the story) Apologies for the rambling. The point I'm trying to make is that I haven't worked on my story planning for months but, your videos inspire me to keep going and moving forward with it

Loved the flash fiction, gave me goosebumps! And loved how you broke this all down for us!

Thought I would have a go at this one. Here is what I came up with. Hope you like it. Tears from my funeral taking place under the large willow tree start fading away slowly as does the bright white light. I walk up the hill from our family home to our little log cabin. Carved into the deck are our initials and the year we declared our love for one another. A warmth wraps around me as I reach for the handle and push the door open. Sitting there on the rug in-front of the fire. I see your beaming smile and your tricky mood changing green eyes staring, inviting me to come inside. I am now whole again.

You write beautifully

great advice! made me remember when I did a flash fiction piece too, that was inspired by the same combination. I didn't even realize it, but now I can recreate it thanks to your awareness, thank you!!

love it. Thank you.

Valuable Stuff, Kieren

Amazing video, just keep making more👏💥

Great video 😍. I agree! I look through images and videos while listening to music when I need inspiration 😌. Btw love the monster truck look 🤣 with the backward hat.

A Jim Jarmusch quote is a very good one for creativity.

I feel like I finally found the right channel for newbie writers. Subscribed.

Thank you so much for sharing this. This resonates with me in a way I cannot yet put into words. For most of my life I have felt like this, only music & beautiful photographs or videos can really fully inspire me to write. The evoke a story almost instantly. Why didn't my teachers tell us this .... oh well. Times change, and that's a good thing.

I've just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos. Great information, Kieren 👍

Confluence! I try to see it or create by trying out connections in my head as I go through an average day but never tried this method of the visual with music. Nice! The story was amazing!!

Wonderful! ❤ Thank you for another great video.

Tq for the idea bro i also like you i have no idea and my mind was full of distrubance after watch your video it was full of outcomes and new idea was created in my mind tnx

I’m new to your channel but I love your writing!!

Great video, Keiren. I've had similar inspiration to write from after seeing pictures or videos, or sometimes even dreams. Oftentimes, text prompts won't do it for me unless I have visuals in mind like you said. I love the drone video idea. I'm gonna have to try it!

I really enjoy your videos, thank you.

Well done, that was a really nice piece of microfiction. I like writing microfiction, flash fiction or short stories.

Love it! I have never thought that images can help! It makes total sense tho.. why didnt I think of it before…

Phew! Don't need to download TikTok! 😅😂

Imagine that, it was a cat video 😂

Your micro story 😭 unexpected

Do people still write on paper or am i the only one?

now you're talking
