    What You Need to Learn about Plot Structure

    This video has created so much additional work, but I'm excited. This whole concept is part of what led to my biggest breakthrough last month. It's what lead me to figure out the path forward, for one of the two things I need to evolve to my next level of being a writer. Anyway, hopefully, this...

    Advice that is useless. A collection.

    This may or may not shock you, but I hate most common writing advice. Most of it is, frankly, the blind leading the blind. This is one reason I do what I do and constantly try to improve myself, as I'd rather give people actual substance and true direction instead of that vague bullshit...

    How to Write Minimalist Prose

    Minimalist style is far from my favorite, though I know how to do it. And when to use it. Personally, I'm fondest of a nice balanced approach at the middle, but that's neither here nor there. Also, glad to hear it since that was one of the things I was considering for! Plus did it this way to...

    How to Write Minimalist Prose

    Someone once asked me for tips on how to write concisely. I've known how, but given my sheer depth of knowledge, I haven't known how to tackle it all properly. In fact, I often feel this way. I recently came up with a possible solution, which you can see in the document I created and attached to...

    Tips for Writing Tournament Arcs

    Definitely glad to hear you are! I mean, I stand by what I said, there's so much you can do with them. Hell, in the past, my favorite time always with Pokemon was whenever the Pokemon League came around. Regardless, I hope this helps you think about it! And see what's been done in a new light...

    Writing Casual Conversations

    Theoretically! Figuring out how to make all of those, given my past as a plot-first type of person, was quite the challenge at first. I can do it much easier now due to my knowledge of craft, but I won't pretend it was easy.

    I KNEW IT! I FUCKING KNEW IT! THEY FUCKED UP LIKE A DRAGON AS I SUSPECTED THEY WOULD! IT FEATURES THE VERY ISSUES I WORRIED ABOUT! FUCK! I was so angry that I channeled my recent work at improving my thumbnail skills into making the video's new thumbnail.

    Non-Fan Adaptions: Where They Go Wrong and How to Avoid These Issues

    Leeches summarize how I view those who don't try the stuff I mention as big time. It bugs me so much, especially whenever they inevitably fail and don't take responsibility. Which I feel sums up why they don't deserve the power over things at all. Power is responsibility and it means taking the...

    I figured it out. I figured out how I can do stuff on stables in a way that makes it bigger and more accessible beyond just wrestling.

    Foreshadowing TOO Subtle?

    What I think about is what I said in the video at the very beginning (the first 30 seconds) and repeated at the end. :s_wink:
