    I'm sorry, what term did you say you dislike that might work in YA? I couldn't tell what you said (my hearing sucks and I did try to rewatch it to catch it but I still can't tell) All in all, good things were said. I agree with a lot of this as a bigender (girl and nonbinary person who uses she/they). I'd add that you should think about how out your character is, their coming out, and how that's affected them. It doesn't have to be a big part of the story but it does affect them and give you more insite when writing them.

    • @mj_james_writes

      @mj_james_writes Місяць тому

      Just a reminder that non-binary or nonbinary is a more universal term. I dislike the use of enby, and it should only be used for those who like the term. My favorite book is a Sci-Fi called An Unkindness of Ghosts by Rivers Solomon. The Many Half-Lived Lives of Sam Sylvester is great YA rep. For those that enjoy romance Chef’s Kiss. Love and Other Disasters is also good rep, but I didn’t prefer the writing style.

    Hi! I just came across this video on my recommendations and haven’t seen your other videos. I mainly watch videos about animations, video games, random things like Reddit stories and sometimes queer stuff, so it makes sense I found your video. Anyway I agree with you on most of the points you talked about and I think these are important things to know when writing a non binary character. I also wanted to give you some advice and feedback from the viewers’ perspective. First I think you should add background music in your videos to give them a more specific vibe. Depending on the topic you can use calm music or a little more serious, but it helps retain the attention of the viewer even when what you say is interesting and that’s probably also why they do it in series and movies appart from setting the context and intensifying emotions. Next. I feel like you have written a script and are pretty strictly following it. It is good to have a script to give direction to your ideas and avoid having them all over the place. The downside here is that it feels like you’re directly reading it so the facecam doesn’t add as much as it could if you’re sticking to the text so much. Something I learned from school presentations is that everyone has different ways of learning a script to sort of perform it in front of the class. By that I mean that another method of learning or reciting your script might give a more natural result that feels more like a conversation. By the way I haven’t watched your other videos so I have no idea what you sound like for example during a conversation or in another context. If this is just your normal way of speaking then I apologize if you felt offended by this bit of advice, it is not my intention. My goal is only to help you improve with what I can find so your content can be more appealing to more people, and be more appealing to the people that are already here. Finally, if you can, add visuals even though it’s only a simple drawing like when you were talking about physical appearance. I see this is a relatively small channel (comparing to what I’m used to watch) and you might not have access to video clips and stuff, or maybe it’s too time consuming during editing to add detailed stuff. I’m sort of new to editing and every time I open my editing software to work on a project I remember how time consuming and precise some things are. I hope this little list of tips can help! I believe this is constructive criticism and I am sorry if it doesn’t come across as such. I have less experience than you so this might not be as pertinent as I thought it would be and maybe you already are doing what I suggested here in other videos. Nonetheless I thought it would be nice to leave some feedback from the viewer side. Anyway I wish you the best and I hope you have an amazing rest of your week :D

    I don’t know if this is something you can speak on, but often when I write a character with any quirks I’m told that I’ve written an autistic coded character & that I’m insulting neurodiverse people. (This always comes from neurotypical people) Do you have any thoughts?

    • @kayvon5926
      @kayvon5926 Місяць тому

      Apparently being socially awkward OR having certain interests OR having anxiety OR being ace makes a character autistic coded

    • @mj_james_writes
      @mj_james_writes Місяць тому

      This may be kind of harsh, but I would say I don't listen to neurotypical people's feedback on potentially autistic-coded characters. However, being socially awkward, having intense interests, anxiety, and even being ace are all potentially related to being autistic. They all describe me perfectly. So, I could see why you received that feedback. I would suggest you determine WHY your character is this way and put it somewhere in the text. Some of this may go back to asking yourself why you write your characters this way. I know several authors who wrote autistic-like characters before they were diagnosed (professionally or peer-diagnosed). So they wrote characters like them. IMO, that is valid autism rep. If it is only one or two of these things in a character it could just be who they are. However, if one character has a whole lot of autistic traits...As a reader I would mark them as autistic-coded also.

    @polyliker8065 2 місяці тому

    I loved your video. It is very helpful advice as someone with ADHD I often beat myself up for just not getting around to writing that day and being too tired or not into it. I do have some thoughts on the reading thing tho. What is the most important for me is not necessarily to read a book but to engage with stories and how they are constructed. So while I don't read, I watch tons of series and movies and listen to songs. All the elements to make for a great and engaging story you can find in there can translate over to a book. For me there is some extra good/bad in reading depending how you look at it in that you might start to (unintentionally) copy the writing style of someone. If that helps you find your own style that's great, for me that just doesn't work.

    • @mj_james_writes
      @mj_james_writes 2 місяці тому

      I have been thinking about this. I completely agree that there are elements of other media, such as movies, games, and songs, that are beneficial. However, I strongly feel that readers should engage in reading books and short stories, specifically in the genre that they are writing. Each genre has unique elements, and you can only learn by engaging specificlly with those elements. How authors engage will differ. I know a lot of authors who cannot read the genre they are currently writing. However, if you are (just as an example) a romance writer who does not read any romance, then I do think it is a limitation. Now, by reading, I do not mean by print only.

    I'm so glad you are able to be yourself and that your kids have such an open-minded and accepting parent as well. :)

    Do you have any book recs with autism rep? I'd love to read one. 😊

      I have loads of recommendations, but to start I'd recommend mine. :) I have a fantasy book with female autism rep and two science-fiction books with genderqueer autism rep. Some other great books include The Book Eater and The Outside. I'll be posting a whole host of recommendations in April as well and do have a few rec videos out on UA-cam.

      @@mj_james_writes Thanks! I've read stuff with autistic-coded characters, but none that were connonicly autistic.

    Nice list! What did you think of Mexican Gothic? I haven’t read it yet, but it sounds really interesting.

      It really wasn't for me. I actually DNFed it. I pushed through to the "twist" and was done.
