I kept thinking about tournaments and competition stuff lately due to Blue Lock and ended up making this. Hope it can help!

Last in this specific series, finally hitting soft magic at its softest. I discuss a bit about bad magic systems in this too, as I dislike the notion that a system being flawed makes it soft or hard makes it good.

So... I was tired yesterday, and I forgot to make a thread here... My bad! I'm working on the soft magic video right now to end this. I'm also going to discuss a bit about bad magic systems in it and parts of the differences between something being soft and something being bad, though I...

The next part in the magic system series. This time I tackle systems that aren't hard magic, but closer on the hard spectrum to it. I feel this is what many who think of it actually make or want to make.

This is the next part of my new series of magic system videos. After reflecting on some of my past work, I wanted to add something a bit new to the discussion again. I've had so many people ask me, "Is this magic system good?" after just dropping some description of things, and I have no way of...

This is a little project I've been working on with magic systems to conceptualize them better. I have more in-depth videos coming -- this is just an overview. Regardless, I'm hoping it can help people out when working on their own magic stuff.

I swerved into this topic a bit last minute, but it was fun getting this off my mind. Hopefully it can help those invested in stuff like this.

Decided to tackle writing OP characters more now, from the perspective of "this is what I've noticed works." Hopefully it can help you out!

I approach this from another angle, explaining how things can go wrong and why, and what to be careful of when writing strong, wish-fulfillment characters.

I got asked about this recently, so here's my best attempt at tackling ways to do it.

I've received questions about this quite a bit, and while there's more I want to say on things that cause Act 2 issues, this is the immediate solution I thought about to help others. Hope it can make a difference.

Newest video, some ways to create complications in stories

I've found different things work for me than what people say should work and I sometimes wonder if they'll work for others who are seeking help, so here we are.

Here's the latest video after I took a day off! This was requested of me, so I figured, why not? I'll probably do a follow-up on naming settings soon, but not this week.

I've always thought this was a fascinating tip when I learned it, so paying it forward.

I've been asked many questions about plotting, especially when it comes to arc-based stuff, so it's about time I tackled it. I highly recommend this one for web novel writers, specifically given how many people want to write these long narratives. Given how many people don't in this space don't...

I was asked about this in the previous video, so I'm following up.

I'm going to be a bit blunt here and say most webnovels suck at pacing. I often run into plot driven writing that could do with knowing more on how to slow the plot, especially with dialogue writing and exploring characters. So I put this together as an overview, but I feel much more I'll need...

Glad to get some of these notes down, I've enjoyed making sense of stuff like this.

I realized I forgot to post this here yesterday, so... here we go. I have realized I need to add one more step to my process -- something I've been doing anyway, but need to formalize -- but that'll come up later on when I get back to it. Regardless, this completes the series I've done...
