Status Updates From GMC: Goal, Motivation and C...

Найгірша книжка, що я читав по письму. Уособлення всього, що не так з комерційним ринком літератури. Авторка пише не книжки і літературу, а продукт, який треба продати. В книжці про письмо книги, всі приклади на фільмах і сценаріях, бо фільми всі дивляться, а от читають книжки не всі і то довго (цитата). Збірних банальних і очевидних порад закутаний у "спробу" якоїсь формули.

ah!! i finished this book!!!!
excitingggggg

will definitely have a lot to plan and prepare for and account for when starting maeve’s story

“Your internal beliefs are more important. You shouldn't superimpose someone else's system of
moral beliefs over what you know to be right and true.”

what is this therapy session 💀💀💀😭😭

this book is js so freaking helpful. i realize that i do have a lot of things to learn and implement in order to write what i wanna write the way i wanna write it

“When you work on your opening scene keep these things in mind. You need an event or circumstance.”

wait. this.

i also didn’t think about action in chapter 1. i need to. ACTION IS THE KEY IN BOOKS.

literally speechless. a scene is not what i imagined—but now i realized that i actually LOVE scenes and the lack of them is what i call “bad prose” (at least part of it)

now i know what i need to master in my own writing. it feels SO nice to have the language and be able to google the exact thing i need
