“All vibes no plot” I have never related to anything more than this statement 🤭
I've lost count of how many tutorials I watched because I was stuck with an idea. It was always an idea and when I started writing I didn't know where to start, or what the PLOT was. And trust me, none of it helped me. It gave me tips but not those that worked for me. But your video, for me, was a total eye-opener. I have a very short attention span and the way you don't just stare at the camera and talk like many others do, but instead SHOW us the process was such a big deal for me. I love you so much for making this video. You gained a loyal subscriber. May you reach the peak of success and happiness.
Girl this is SO HELPFUL. I've also spent the last few years trying to write a story and I'm now at the point where I'm trying to crack down and get words onto paper, but I have so many ideas from years of brainstorming and daydreaming that the entire plot is a MESS. At this point it feels like a twelve season tv show based solely on vibes instead of a plot for one (maybe two) books. So glad that I'm not alone in this.
Taking out elements from the pins is GENIUS. Im also a victim of using pinterest for the vibes, but i never knew how to use those images in my story. You are amazing!!!
This is the most helpful video I’ve come across. Don’t get me wrong. I love watching published authors, indie and traditional, talk about their process. But they never start at the VERY beginning. They go from plot outline to publication process. What a lot of us need is how to get started at the ground level, like going from idea to premise to outline to plot. I don’t even want to think about publishing until I have a completed draft. And this video was excellent for getting me on the path to a completed draft. I’ve been writing since I was five, and yet I’ve never finished anything novel length. I’ve started dozens, and I’ve completed long short stories and poetry, but never a novel. Thank you for starting at the beginning!!! 😊😊
i love how you used pinterest to find the vibes and atmosphere of your book! I have aphantasia so its a bit difficult for me to visualize the atmosphere of my story but your method is PERFECT
Thank you very much for your work! I'm 62 yo from a small town in the amazonian forest, Brazil. I would not have been able to guess my way through the full development of a plot. Through your work, you're giving millions of people the tools necessary for them to have a voice. I hope*you understand how powerful your channel already is. Keep up the great work.
From someone obsessed with structure till I’m paralyzed I’m so grateful I’ve found this video! About to binge watch the entire channel brb
I really appreciate a video of turning a vague idea into a plot. Most authortube channels don't really break this process down in a simple and manageable way. For that, thank you very much.
I think what helps me most is input by friends and other people. Every time I share a story idea someone asks questions that I have not asked myself but that I feel like I need to answer in that very moment which creates a much more intriguing story. My current story idea that I am currently drafting has changed drastically since I first came up with it like 2/3 years ago all thanks to input from other people and I love it
seriously blown away by how helpful this video is - you are SO talented and insightful. thank you for documenting and sharing this process, i'm so excited to delve into all of your other videos now!
I have been trying to write a book for the last 3 years since I was 15 and I never knew how to properly start and over the years I kept re-doing the one idea I had originally and now I’ve decided to start fresh. This video is EVERYTHING I have been missing in the last 3 years. Thank you so much 😭♥️
This video is so helpful as a writer who can never end up getting ideas on pages and have watched videos to help that, this actually worked! I finally have a story idea and am actually working on writing it! I’ve always had to have help from friends but this was a way for me to do this all on my own with no help at all with coming up with main plot, characters or anything. Thank you so much!
Thank you thank you thank you! I'm autistic and ADHD and this is almost like having someone body double for me, but better. I have clear ideas for my book, but I'm really struggling with actually doing the organizing and starting because I'm getting overwhelmed. This is basically like having someone to write with, and ideas of how to kinda structure my time and what step to take next when I'm stuck.
Just found your video two days ago and already you have helped me figure out what I was doing was wrong for my brain. I appreciate your approach and visual showing of how you do things. KEEP BEING AMAZING!!!
I’ve had a premise in my mind for a decade now and I’ve written two different chapters when I was a teen & when I was in my early 20s. Last night i decided to combine the two and I’ve already come up with characters, plot, stakes, tension, ending. I brainstormed all night. Now im just trying to set the feel of my novel & hashing out some details. I’m really happy I stumbled upon your video as it has really helped me finalize everything. I’ll be writing my chapters soon & hopefully one day have the courage to publish it. But for now I’m just happy im doing something that’s been on my mind since I was a teen, and something that I can completely call mine.
I just want to say that I magically stumbled upon this video and wow! Your approach is so interesting and I'm sitting here fully invested in trying this for my own writing project. Thanks for the wonderful ideation ideas!
The video ended so fast i didn’t realise cuz i was so invested in writing my own plot as well I have this idea for 8 years and im trying to write it so this was so helpful I’m excited for this series 💛💛
thank you for this!! as other comments mentioned, i’ve watched so many other videos on how to plot out books, but yours is the first one i’ve come across that actually starts from the beginning. i’ve had this dream of writing a book and ideas floating around in my head for YEARS but could never figure out how to get past the brainstorming phase. after watching your video, i feel like i can finally navigate those next steps. so thank you so much for that!! wishing u all the best on your writing journey, i can’t wait to read your book! 🤍
