"Dump it for this younger, more attractive story." Fabulous metaphor. A story = a relationship.

I struggle with procrastination. I've been avoiding the actual writing for a long time now. I tell myself that the idea is not ready yet; that I'll do better if I research a bit longer; that today I am too tired to do it. I feel like I can only break the cycle when at least some writing has been done, so this video may be the boost I needed šŸ˜‰

Your kind advice is so refreshing and uplifting in a sea of "tough love" booktubers. Thank you for reminding me that writing is supposed to be a beautiful (albeit hard) thing.

Great stuff and timely too. I've been struggling with what I assumed was a serious case of writers block. After watching this video I think my problem is really a flow issue. I write stuff down, but it feels stiff or contrived, not my real voice. I'm one of those who has to have a reason for writing something. It needs to serve a purpose. I have three cool ideas in my head right now but each time I started on one I looked at what I wrote and it just didn't work. I think now I have a better idea of what my actual problem is and for that I thank you. And I love that line, "You're a writer but you're not your writing." I'm gonna frame that one. I have to remind myself on a daily basis that I write because I love it. I'm not looking to make money and I'm at that point in life where if I was gonna become rich and famous it would have happened decades ago. No, I write because I want to and as someone once told me, my characters will never hate me. Thanks for this timely video. I'm bookmarking this one because when it comes to self-doubt I can be a ninth-level master.

I have imposter syndrome. Im always exhausted. I run out of energy fast. I'm terrible at time management. So, I'm a mess. I'll still write and try out things. Thank you for the tips. Very helpful.

"Take a hard look in the mirror, and be kind to the person looking back at you." YES! I posted this one on FB.

Love your tipp against worlbuilding desease! Building the world around the plot is exactly the way I go about it. :) Although, going the extra mile will give you a better understanding of the universe you're creating which often leads to more immersive writing in my experience. I was really impressed with Dune for example and I'm probably gonna make a video about it.

Shiny New Idea Syndrome? I had no idea there was a name for my problem šŸ¤£. Now to unearth my Decomposing story corpses...

My biggest problem is less shiny new story idea but rather continuous, continuous redesign of the current one. I feel like I'll never nail it down. Maybe a variation on the shiny new idea theme.

I've just found your channel by chance and I'm so happy. Your videos are great and they came out when I really need them. I used to write a lot but now I'm not doing it. Actually. I'm not even reading as usual. I'm from Buenos Aires and I write in Spanish but your videos really help me and motivate me to start again.
