What's the name of the first song? Right at the beginning? It is so catchy and cozy
Novelist vs Ex-Lover in a library.. huh? 😭
Wow, this is such a unique way of coming up with inspiration!! I love it so much! 💕
Thank you! It's been hard to connect with other writers!
This was so helpful!! Thank you!!
Got jump-scared by the intro to NRB Plays Blood on the Clocktower at 21:10
Professor vs swordsman in a campus (makes sence)
ugh i need at least five hours of this

0:00 - 2:00
hi there! i would love to thank u in person for making this video!! becuase ...im making a book called "500 hours of danger" im own the front cover!! tysm !! *if u want updates js reply back to me and ill update u guys!*
Perfect! I needed some of these tips and I think your Instagram account is incredibly amazing, a special focus on captions, I think it's wonderful to include them because of those of us who don't have English as our native language and are still learning it, anyway, I loved the video! ❤❤❤❤
Name of song at 46:52?
I am a writer, HELLO, Thanks for making this video, I hate instagram but after not getting any reader organically as a self published writer, I have to enter this field. I might consider your tips and blend and do some customisation to create something unique and not like yours because that would be not at all good and neither it will help me grow. Thanks♥️
liked (loved) and subscribed !!!
Which would you recommend i watch first?
This is wonderful, the best writing music video I've found!
this playlist made my novel better
frrr
Wbat song is playing at 14:40 i know it, it sounds so familiar and its killing me!!!!!
UGH, this music fit the story I'm writing all TOO well like WHAT. I LOVE IT! God bless you! 💕 (no because so many times I went, "wait, this fits the scene", "WAIT THIS FITS WHAT'S GOING ON!!!" Love love it)
Love this!
I loved everything about this video!! Such a great way to get inspired and get more writing ideas, I would love to see more videos like this. Well done!
I like he growled, it never occured to me to be an animal noise, i don't understand why everyone hates it so much. As long as it isn't overused its really good, like groaning almost to me. Also, just look at that one scene of Henry Cavil (i think).
Thank you for the relaxing, background music, it really helps me do my studies and help me control my anger issues 😅, Thank you very much, god bless you
I've seen some people put the hashtags in the comments instead of the caption. Is there any difference?
tysm for this video it has helped me a lot
Suspenseful, yes. It's a different sort of energy from the Battle theme and the pirate theme.
"There are plenty of dialogue tags that I'm a fan of" he muttered.
I've found myself rewriting my first and second chapters i always felt like i shouldn't touch them when i should finish the rest of my book first but that advice (that the first draft will always suck) has proven unhelpful in this case. i'm not aiming for perfection but the story changes so much from the first chapter i cant even recognize it as the same story. rewriting just feels like the right choice for me but i'm still mildly worried that i might be doing the wrong thing but just the thought of those to chapters makes me never want to read or write my book ever again so 🤷♀. We ball i guess
The thing about writing advice is that there are always "ifs", "ands" as well as "butts". The first draft will indeed always suck, and it is /sometimes/ best to finish the draft before revising something. It's easy to get stuck in a revising loop and never move forward. HOWEVER, on other occasions, it may be necessary to "go back in order to go forward" as it were. If something happens in, say, ch 6 or 8 or 10 (etc.) that you think would work much better if it were foreshadowed in ch 1 or 2, then go for it. Or if something just occurs to you mid-draft that you think needs to be changed in ch 1 or 2, then go ahead and do it. You don't need to wait. I've totally been there. I skip around chapters a lot as inspiration strikes and motivation swings. It's really hard to "do something wrong" in the first draft. Do you what you need to do.
This was a brilliant way to brainstorm an idea!
46:52 🔥🔥
An heiress vs her ex-lover on campus, ngl, seems spicy 😂🌶
Are you out of your mind. Take down the lettering. WOW
Astrologer Vs. Swordsman in a castle. Interesting.... ;-;
Perfect! I'm writing from two POVs, one is a royal guard in training, so this fits him. I needed a good vibe for him, cause I already have the music for the thief!
woahhh this is GREAT for my writing experience
Great video on this! People have really strong opinions on dialogue tags 😳. I'm usually of the opinion that the priority is to communicate what's happening, and then to try to mix it up for variety. I have been accused of using too many adverbs, but there's only so many ways in the English language to say "laughed" or "smiled," for example. A person can only "grin" and "beam" so often! I was curious after watching how frequently I've used "growled," and I was shocked that I've only used it once in my main novel?? I expected it to be way more often. And that context is a guy using it... but considering it's my male fairy godmother protagonist's reaction to his brother telling him he's a "strong, independent glitter princess" who doesn't need a relationship to complete him, I think we're safe on the alpha-male front. I am definitely *way* more guilty of overusing "exclaimed," however.
Thank you so much for this video! I was trying to get any value out of regular Instagram business advice videos, before looking up specifically writer content, and besides not being useful at all, it was leaving a bad taste in my mouth. So much of that content just tries to grab for anyone, with kinda spammy vibes, instead of looking for a target audience. I especially appreciated the ideas on how to use tropes as search terms, and the permission to write descriptions in my own tone! I really hate feeling like I have to beg for "the algorithm's" attention, and sell myself to get people to notice my work, so having permission to speak directly to my target audience instead of trying to woo a computer is a major relief! Thanks again! <3 Calise
This music fits beautifully with a fantasy/cozy mystery story I've just finished writing. Thank you!!
I could do without the jaz
Some of these songs sound kinda Christmas themed 🤔
Astrologer vs ghost writer in a castle….maybe the love interest should be a princess and the two are fighting for her favor….hm….
"Growing Tall" could definitely be used for a TV show intro...
I was just thinking that! It has that Sherlock vibes when I first heard it.
35:37 is the adventure begins on Bardify's channel
Curator Ex-lover Speakeasy...
25 minutes in and get hit with the nostalgic music used in so many of Xylophoney Origin series.
Exactly what I needed!! i’m now writing a story about a traitor in a fancy family!
❤️❤️❤️
I knew it was going to be good when the first song was a song I think I remember hearing in a Pirates of the Caribbean movie
gives me the good kind of chills...👍
