Great advice. I wrote two novels in the span of a year, thought they were perfect and self-published. Didn't sell any. I spiraled down into a Smeagle phase, where everything I read or watched that was produced afterwards, felt like they were all stealing ideas from me. Glad I didn't sell any. I went back after a year of writing a third book, and nearly puked everywhere. Those two first books were horrible. But they did have the base content for a good story. I pulled them off the digital shelves and edited them two more times. Thought they were perfect again but decided to find a professional editor. Best move ever. Now I'm going over the first book with my editor, a chapter at a time, and wow, there's still so much chiseling and sanding to do. If it wasn't for the accidental process and realization that setting my book down for a spell or two, then picking it up again after some time would totally change the way I saw it, I would've blamed a broken system and stopped writing all together. Because of that learning process, it's less painful and easier to swallow my editors criticism and hopefully one day I'll be ready to publish.

The key is to not find a mentor in one person. If you’re good already, it would be hard to find someone who’s better than you in all aspects, but there are plenty of writers who are better than you in one aspect. Pull them all in because you all can help each other and grow together. Each of you can be your plus and minus.

YES, was going to say that reading more mediocre stuff can really help you figure out what NOT to do, or just what you don't like. And then you can go back to your own work more critically to check if you've done anything similar and slyly correct it. Also...it's a wee bit of a confidence boost to think, "well if this got published, then there's hope for me" lol I try to stick it through with books I dislike to learn as much as I can on what not to do in my own writing (even if I'm cringing the whole time in physical pain). There's definitely been a couple times where I've gone "ah shit, we're cutting that", so it's been useful!

Great video, as always! 👏I absolutely agree with the advice that "A better writer is a better reader." Reading a substantial amount of good books will really influence someone to think better and pen those thoughts. If I may contribute unsolicited advice, one of the secrets to achieving excellence (not perfection) in writing is to ask good questions. These doubts and curiosities are the driving force of any writer (and thinker) to grab their pen and move the cursor of the blank page.

@@billyalarie929 That's a great question, Billy. There could be two ways to approach this. Firstly, there are instances where creative (writer, thinker, etc.) people need to wrestle with stupid questions (ideas, etc.) first in order for them to eat the fruit of the good ones. Not all begin as an expert. And the state of being stupid (lost, naive, peculiar, etc.) can constitute the idea of greatness, better than not starting at all. And the second one would be people who ask good questions is the fruit of the great contents they consume. Having said this, the next question should be, "what constitute good questions?"

I listened to a podcast with the author of ‘90 Day Novel,’ (and I apologize for not remembering his name or the podcast), and he mentioned that many writers have a dozen started and unfinished novels in their home because we have a tendency to edit as we go. His methodology is to just write until you have a completed draft; no editing and rewriting as you go. Blah it out in a stream of consciousness fashion. AFTER you have reached the end of your piece, you can go back and read through it and make revisions. But! The first draft is done. You better know the direction your piece is going to take, and you have something to work with and refine. This tip has taken the perfectionist pressure off, and I’ve been able to write to completion several pieces since implementing this method! Also- I recently found your channel! I can’t wait to watch more videos on classical literature!! Blessings. 😊

Also, over the years I've read several hundred books on the writing craft. Le Guin's Steering the Craft is excellent. My number 1 recommendation for fiction and nonfiction, though, is Stein on Writing by Sol Stein. For style and communication of message, I suggest William Zinsser's On Writing Well.

The write drunk and edit sober approach resonates with me so much and the newfound clarity of making a conscious effort to act in that manner will certainly help me produce something rather than nothing at all so thank you! Perhaps a video on planning an idea might go nicely with this? Just a suggestion. I myself find that getting an idea is relatively easy but taking that idea and making it into a fully structured narrative where there are clear themes and a clear order to everything is the hardest part. I have so many ideas but not one is ready to be written because of plot holes or underdeveloped characters etcetera. A ‘how to plan a novel’ or ‘how to flesh out a novel idea’ type video could be incredibly useful. As I say it’s just a suggestion. Thank you for everything you do, there isn’t enough of KZbinrs like yourself and I don’t have anyone in my personal life so videos like these are what keep me inspired and keep me from feeling so alone :)

I’m still learning how to write well myself, but I have picked up a few things along the way: If you learn how to accurately copy a master’s work in extremely exacting detail, it can serve as a suitable plus substitute. Learning how to copy one writer’s style accurately teaches you how to read/copy other writings more effectively. Never underestimate anyone’s abilities. Being new and inexperienced doesn’t necessarily make someone any less clever and insightful. Every single “equal” level collaborator I have had was actually a “plus” in disguise. Every “minus” level relationship I’ve ever had has turned into a “plus” level relationship in time. Everyone has a distinct point of view, and if you are open enough to see it, it can change your entire approach fundamentally.

A few techniques transformed my writing of fiction. 1) I decided to write under a pseudonym. That way, anyone that I know who might end up reading it, won't know its by me and that means I write in my true voice without any self-censorship whatsoever. 2) If I have been published (short story in a magazine for example), I never read reviews or critiques of my work. I will take feedback from a publisher I have submitted to and I do have a writer friend who will look at an unfinished work, but I always feel that if I look at reviews, it will impact my one true voice (even if subconsciously). If I have been published then I am happy that my work is good enough for others to read and that is good enough for me. 3) I spend a good deal of time structuring my story and building characters before I begin to write. This means I do not interrupt my momentum by entering plot cul-de-sacs once I have started writing and its easier for me to step into the shoes of my characters when I am writing from their point of view. 4) I adopt a minimalist approach to my prose. I avoid adding any extra words when they are not needed (multiple adjectives, adverbs that do not add to the prose etc). I am also sparing with punctuation and tend to not wrap verbiage around my prose. 5) I don't like too many descriptives in my prose. I like to use inventive ways to describe things in the world I am creating by the dialogue, feelings and actions of my characters.

I was listening to a podcast that said, “it’s important to live life by design rather than emotion. Basically, sticking to a routine is what allows us to be the healthiest version of ourselves (especially when you're fighting these demons ex. OCD for me). I’ve had to overhaul how I approach work/habits by practising mediocre consistency. Now I try to put in consistent 50-60% effort into my habits - to make sure I do it I began recording it and posting it on YT. Like you said, I study/write for 2 hours a day and just write uninhibited. Historically I have a habit of going too hard, not being able to sustain the Herculean effort, giving up and hating myself. So now I’m trying to give a small, consistent mediocre effort everyday. And its crazy how it adds up.

It does not need to be constant writing all the time. 3) Be a Good reader. A good writer is almost likely a good reader. Read more, try to extract them juicy-ass sentences and interesting phrases from them popular writers. 4) Do not throw your first draft into the dustbin. Try to keep it somewhere else then edit your current draft to your liking. We'll never if there is something good from the first one.

I have a question about having or not having too many good ideas in your story. Part of me understands that anything that doesn't move the plot forward probably shouldn't be there. And it sometimes means that even if we have great emotional scenes or moments - if they don't serve the purpose, cut them. But then there is another thing. Readers/watchers/players - whatever medium you write for - we don't remember the plot. We remember the moments. Strong emotional moments, regardless of whether they serve the story. And I've seen stories with plot holes and/or stories that don't seem tight, but the audiences love them for those moments. So what is more important really? Or I guess, the answer is that both are important. But how would you find the right balance? Did you have such dilemmas as a writer in the post? What did you do and what was your train of thought when you made the choice - whether to cut a great emotional moment out of the story or to keep it?
