This is a short, simple lesson that so many overlook. Still, it's a good foundation for me to build on.

Negative character arcs were voted in this week, so I chose to interpret it this way. Hopefully it helps those who want to go down this route. As always, community vote here if you want to influence the Sunday video discussion. This week's topics are... Writing Gods Writing Plot Twists The...

I've touched on this lesson countless times, so it was time it got its episode I can throw people to instead of saying it repeatedly. Plus this just was a useful little project for me with how I expanded things.

Second video for the weekend, where I touch a bit on what I've noticed with worldbuilding. Want to have a say on next week's community voted video? Go here.

The newest creation by me! Or newest I'm sharing as I make a lot of these. Anyway, hope this one helps out. Tomorrow is a world building episode. And if you wish to vote on next week's episode, the community tab has options up.

I've kind of gotten through most video topics asked about, though there are a couple I still need to hit up. So, anything in particular people want to toss out for me? The more specific, the better. Also, I've brought back the weekly vote. You can vote here for me to keep everything organized...

Started thinking about this last night and do whipped this up. I'll be opening up a vote again on the community tab for people later today. If any topic you want, now's the time to ask as I've a couple of ideas.

Anti-heroes today, Anti-Villains tomorrow!

Decided to do the other side of the coin today with villains.

It's time for another episode. I'm certain there will be plenty of disagreement, but I feel this is essential. I decided to explore what constitutes heroism more this time while focusing on trying to get at what I view as the heart of heroism. I reject the notion that "heroism" is a subjective...

There's a part of me who wants to say that a lot of the struggles people have with tackling this type of character are a skill issue, but I think I put my finger on what the actual problem is early on and developed all kinds of tips around that. Nothing I see as revolutionary, but having it...

I'm adding this in for some stuff on writing character flaws and flawed heroes. In this case, one thing I really wanted to hit on was minor versus fatal flaws and just plant that concept for some future stuff next week as it's the start of me targeting a misconception which irritates me.

This is a little theory I've concluded so far, based on my research and experiences. Plus, it sets up the next series, where I'll first go into greater depth into heroism, as I detest people who claim that it is subjective/a matter of perspective.

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.
