[@SaintBoot]

Is her name pronounced as Tayah or Tahya in Neon Ghosts?

[@AllKnowingNick]

And here I thought Daniel was coming out as a Trad wife 😑

[@jaydavis9717]

😂😂😂

[@yasielromero8236]

This is good 😂

[@rosarodriguezarguijo93]

Omg same lol 😂

[@SGT_STOIC]

This is why I'm here.

[@kathleenschwab4645]

The disappointment. I was looking forward to videos of how to make salsa and so forth.

[@GlaurungtheRed]

Yes absolutely I'd watch the hell out of whiteboard plot synopsis

[@Freya407]

As someone who is intrigued by a ton of book series but will never have time to read them all, a whiteboard “Daniel explains” series sounds great 😄

[@williammeares5675]

Babe wake up, Goblin Literary Universe just dropped.

[@NarfiRef]

Does that make fans ‘gluons’? Are gatherings ‘glueballs’?

[@e.matthews]

Malazan on a whiteboard sounds chaotic and joyful 👏

[@libraryofaviking]

Best of luck, Daniel! It is also inspiring to see creators like you have mic issues. Makes me feel normal haha 😅

[@RandomArchon]

Yes!! Disheveled goblin explaining books on a whiteboard would be awesome!

[@stephenm.5121]

Thank you for this video, Daniel. As a writer myself (though currently unpublished), hoping to get an agent and break into the traditional space, I'm quite invested in your journey. Your new idea does sound very interesting, and I hope it pans out beautifully for you. I'll pick up your other books in the meantime to see what I've been missing. Best of luck, brother!

[@Talking_Story]

Dude thanks so much for the peak into your artist's journey. Love the transparency and thrilled for you.

[@justcallmeJon]

Really like this white boarding format. Feels so much more natural than a thousand jump cuts per minute! Best of luck with your creative endeavors Daniel

[@mackenzies.g.9862]

I'm so excited for Better Dead, the concept sounds awesome! And yes, more whiteboards are needed haha

[@logandavis7584]

I have been watching your channel for a few years now, and I am so excited for you!! I selfishly hope you continue with Better Dead v1 so I can read it and love it! Very excited to watch you continue to grow as an author and creator. You are incredible Daniel. Thank you for sharing your voice with the world.

[@logandavis7584]

Also, I happily await the time where I have an entire shelf dedicated to Daniel Greene. Keep rocking!

[@SaikoSapling]

As someone who will never write or publish anything I found this super interesting, its cool to see you have a go at each of the publishing routes and give a really frank video about your experiences!

[@starwarssyl1177]

Whiteboard is EXCELLENT. Yes please more!

[@whitney2548]

I vote yes for whiteboard shenanigans!

[@SaintBoot]

I am SO happy that I was able to finally order his Neon Ghost novel. I am kinda sad that I have not had any shipping information yet despite it being a few days.

[@the_fools_tale]

This is super exciting to hear! Amped for the new books!

[@ShiniGuraiJoker]

After a decade of not writing and having little energy, I am glad YT started recommending channels like this. Thank you for persu8ng your dream and broadcasting it. You and a few other channels have mad eme.want to write again.

[@trevorfultz]

I love these types of videos cuz I learn so much. I finally just finished the first draft of my book this past week! Working on some major revisions through the end of the year before I’ll feel comfortable sending it off to beta readers. Thanks for continuing to inspire, Daniel!

[@Chickentopramen123]

Congrats Daniel!! Been following you for a short time and the good news from your agent is well deserved.

[@timr6318]

"Epic Survival Horror Fantasy" Is a series of words I've never heard before but now that I have, holy shit I need it in my life immediately.

[@JoelCrumbleyAuthor]

Dude rock on, great work chugging through the long-term perspective work to pursue what you want. And thanks for sharing the journey, editing my first novel and writing a 2nd and your stuff always inspires! Keep chugging!

[@CNavo.TheNextChapter]

This was some awesome insight, Daniel! Thank you for sharing the transparency of your progress. I'm working on my first epic fantasy, so seeing authors share information such as this is always enlightening. Best of luck and looking forward to reading whatever you put forth to the world. - Cheers 🍻

[@crimsonraen]

Yaaaaaaas Daniel! I love how excited you are for this! I'll definitely pick it up and give it a shot! :D

[@alexg4624]

Thanks for the insight on your publishing journey. Having worked for a big bookstore chain for many years at different positions i always find that kind of content super interesting. And having read Breach of peace, horror is indead a huge strenght of yours!

[@benjaminrollins4400]

Good luck sir! I look forward to reading your new works.

[@Yannis-dq6ri]

Thanks for the update Dan! It was very interesting to hear where all the series are at the moment and new project you’ll be working on! Survival, horror, fantasy… take my money!

[@finnmckeown7825]

Malazan vs whiteboard truly a battle of the ages 😂

[@marygracewriting]

I'm excited for you. Looking forward to hear the updates on your progress.

[@JoriamRamos]

Amazing to hear all of this Daniel :) so good to see you growing and growing as an artist. Good luck (and a lot of patience) with the writing bit :)

[@royceshatzel]

Love this video, love the format! Also congrats!!!🎉

[@ishomedia805]

Congrats! And yes! Do that please!

[@n88466]

Congrats on your progress Daniel. I, and I'm sure a lot of other aspiring writers, find it really inspiring to see your success. Keen to read Better Dead when it comes out

[@namdiy4576]

Congratulations Daniel. From one stranger to another. I’m excited by your excitement.

[@marynazure]

so excited for you! this sounds amazing 🤩

[@giovanni1984]

Thanks for the informative writing update, Goblin Lord. Best of luck!

[@erickoenig9768]

Congrats, my guy. It's been a pleasure watching you grow as both a youtuber and author, and I look forward to seeing the next leg of your journey!

[@nickberlin8247]

This was a solid format. I really enjoyed this!

[@queenkamie8838]

wow Daniel so happy for you and stoked for this new project !! Also the white board art show is 100% the vibe moving forward and your're on to something with using it to explain Malazan lol

[@TheEarthenLie]

Best of luck on getting published! I would love to see the whiteboard approach to a book analysis. But more than anything, I want a deep dive into the entire publishing process. Maybe you could do a long video comparing all the steps to the different ways to get published.

[@dangerousmatt522]

I liked this video format. I need a breakdown of the Cosmere in whiteboard form.

[@Love_and_lore]

Such amazing stuff my guy! I've got a copy of Neon Ghosts on the way and can't wait to dive in and review it!

[@ryan_17295]

There is so much energy in this video. Im excited for the book

[@tropicaltuna]

What an amazing journey you're on. Can't want to read the book!

[@NoblePeril]

Yes absolutely love the addition of the white board with messy handwriting.

[@JaxKordela]

Appreciate this breakdown as someone trying to learn the trad industry and be published someday. I hope you stick with what inspires you and don't get too caught up in being marketable. Even though that is important, you being passionate about the story is the most important thing.

[@omarf.4146]

I REALLY enjoyed this video and knowing your possible future book ideas. The white board concept is really great as well. I am surprised you mentioned horror without mentioning berserk, seeing how invested you are in the series. I can't wait to see what inspirations from Berserk will be in your horror series.

[@BlatantlyGinger]

Congrats sir! Cannot wait to read this once it is released.

[@jimbrown5387]

Thank you for sharing all the info in this video. Keep the faith and write those words until they're....well... written🤩

[@RedFuryBooks]

Very informative! Best of luck the trad route - I know it's harder, but it sounds like you have a solid plan and agent in place, and with your built-in audience, you can definitely be successful. I'll buy the book because of the LOST reference lol

[@genuinehawken]

Congratulations! The survival and overcoming journey sounds epic!

[@Zechree]

I love the whiteboard idea, I’m also very excited and happy for you!

[@corvinscorner]

Congrats Daniel!🎉

[@sarahbee5008]

Congratulations Daniel! As for the whiteboard presentations shenanigans that would be remarkable!

[@qazerwu]

Good to see this daniel. Wish you all the best. And yes, I would love to see more whiteboard stuffs.

[@littenmil1613]

The board idea is sooo cool

[@kr4119]

I love the idea of a Daniel explains series! I'd love to see someone do a video like that for The Locked Tomb series.

[@ericwhited4983]

This video got me emotional; so proud of you my man!!!

[@timothyjamesholbrook771]

My wife and I love the idea of a whiteboard Daniel explains series/video.

[@ghostdreamer7272]

Congrats Daniel!!

[@studiozealot]

That whiteboard explanation video format sounds delightful, I'd watch! Also huge congrats on all the inspiration and direction for your book! That definitely sounds like a marketable concept (weird as it is to phrase it that way) as somebody who's too skittish to play spooky games, but loves studying FromSoft lore. Best of luck on the push towards 100k!!

[@triplebruin890]

Congratulations Daniel! Hope to get to where you are one day as a writer. Also yes this video format is cool

[@calebd9100]

Love the whiteboard

[@lethentucker]

The town that perrin comes across in book ten, and later on the town that Matt encounters. Goosebumps every time.

[@Glokta4]

I was excited for Better Dead, and loved the preview. I hope it will be released eventually as a book. Seeing your preview of Best Deader, I'm even more excited. I agree, your horror sequences are what I enjoyed most in Lawful Times, and look forward to a story where that's the focus.

[@Narrative_Ink]

Congratulations Daniel! This is fantastic 🎉

[@SnakeAndTurtleQigong]

So happy you are pursuing your passion! 🎉

[@christhewritingjester3164]

I love your greens screen shenanigan videos, so white board shenanigans sound equally appealing!

[@atella394]

I'm into it. And given the state of my TBR I'm not even mad about the wait.

[@ASyler]

You can never go wrong with white board shenanigans. Kudos to you for the process you're going through. I have just complete my first novel, an epic high fantasy. It's currently in editing and soon to be in beta reader phase. I'm so excited! And seeing your progress and process and rollercoaster ride is great. I wish the very best for you, good sir!

[@kiraazun]

Between following your journey and authors like Brandon Sanderson who are super open about their process and progress on books (secret projects excluded of course) it's really awesome to get this look into the behind the scenes of being an author. Personally it's something that I have never considered as a career path, but as a lifelong lover of the medium, it's been super insightful to get this peek behind the curtains. Keep up the awesome work, Better Dead sounds like something that would be right up my alley and I hope to see it on shelves one day in the near future!

[@emzstern]

As an aspiring writer this was so inspiring. Also your new book (series?) sounds really cool. I look forward to that but take your time. We can wait ☺ Well done! Now I want to get back to my writing!✍

[@infinitenumberofmonkeys3738]

I would watch you give landscaping tips. You're just genuinely entertaining. I don't know/care about 3/4 of what you talk about in your videos but I watch every one from beginning to end. Congrats! It's awesome when good people get rewarded!

[@mariaslm8]

I love chaotic Daniel. Hope you're doing well, man. This was fun

[@LiteraryStoner]

Hell yeah that sounds awesome!

[@MrBenfranz]

Better Dead 2: Electric Deadaloo sounds delightful. I'd buy a copy.

[@JonnyReads]

Congratulations on the agent signing. Your book idea sounds epic and wish you the best of luck getting it published! Yes, I think it is a great idea to do some plot summary/reveals on the white board. Some booktubers do it with a wall and fan art, the whire board can be a fun new take on that! Keep going man, you are killing it!

[@antonioandrade459]

Congrats, man!!

[@ChantelleGriffin-tellie]

My cat liked your video and then tried to share it on social media 😂 Given the Grouch usually changes the channel that's a huge seal of approval!

[@l33lzonwh33lz]

Congratulations on your publishing journey Daniel! I'd love to see a "Daniel Explains This Book" type of series lol

[@chuckyscookie5323]

Better Dead sounds like a lot of fun, I'm excited about it. Hope you'll also continue Lawful Times, I've really enjoyed the universe and the bits of worldbuilding you explained in earlier videos, that didn't yet make it into the books.

[@arte.marcelo.castro]

Big YES to white board plot explaining shenanigans filled videos!

[@kurathchibicrystalkitty5146]

More whiteboard videos in the future, yes, please! Thank you for breaking down the complexities of the publishing world, I learned a lot, and your chosen one's rival story sounds really interesting! 😀

[@uffekappelskau1193]

Sounds fun good luck

[@Adamtadm]

I love this style

[@Twidgyt]

You look and sound like you've hit the jackpot. Two different vocations that you're are good at AND you're passionate about. And at least a handful of loving and supportive people in your life. I'm happy for you.

[@Srbthmlnsmth]

Congratulations!!!!!

[@diegosantacruz6331]

congrats daniel :)

[@XamuselUzumaki]

I'd like to see a video like what you said near the end. A whiteboard explanation of things would be interesting. :) Also, this is legit a good thing for you, Daniel. :) Two thumbs up from me.

[@yam1desu]

I appreciated how active you were presenting this. I hope for more videos in this format ... with a better microphone. Looking forward to more BD in 2-3 years.

[@mburgalurg]

great video, more of this!

[@baichibee]

I don't know why, this video made me work through my block on my cyberpunk with magic idea, and shift it to maybe a magical girl cyberpunk story. Thank you, Daniel

[@micaylalynn9281]

I'd watch white board explanations more than reviews! As it stands, I skip a lot of reviews for books I haven't, and don't plan to, read. But a breakdown of a book I'll never read? I'm in!

[@linamishima]

The whiteboard concept works well - just watched the genre video before this one and enjoyed it :) An idea is not just explain the plot of a book or series, but maybe talk about inspirations, the author's background, and maybe even peek behind the scenes and talk about why an author wrote something the way they did (being an author yourself with insight into author-y techniques)

[@taintedcrimson]

Yes, please to all the whiteboard things! Also, hell yes to this story concept.

[@ThatOneWogGuy]

I do love your regular format sir but i definitely would enjoy whiteboard shenanigans more than I probably realise ,not gunna lie 😂😂❤ congratulations man,you deserve it!

[@MMHay16]

I forgot what trad publishing was for a second and thought it was gonna be some weird tradwife stuff 🤦‍♀

[@mattmayhem4377]

Love the white board premise! Would love to see more!

[@ipsithganesh2712]

Whiteboard shenanigans, wooooooooo! Would definitely watch!
