7 Pieces of Bad Writing Advice

from Lost the Plot · host SpectreVision Radio

There are so many people on the internet giving excellent writing advice, so I thought I'd help bring balance to the Force by giving some bad writing advice. You can thank me later. Or don't. That's fine too. You can leave a hateful comment, if you want. That's cool. It doesn't hurt my feelings at all when you do that. In fact, it fills me with a burning desire to make more videos when you say "Stop making videos," so go ahead and drop a "Stop making videos," if you like this video, thanks. 🌐Request story notes: https://www.jgscammell.com/ ✍️Check out my writing: https://yeshua.substack.com/ 📹 Bonus videos here: https://www.patreon.com/Josh_from_xbolive 🎙️Here's my podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0p75BgKI0GhuCQVOJl8e8d CHAPTERS 0:00 Welcome. 0:08 1.
