what country are you from?
I'm Nigerian.
Hello Oyinda. I want to touch a bit on the subject of world building. So many times when I'm reading a story and the world in which the story is set, it can be somewhat of an insult to the reader's intelligence. For instance if the climate or terrain don't make sense for the sustainability of the creatures or inhabitants. I always say that writers have to be very good at lying and a lie isn't very good if someone can say to themselves "that doesn't make sense". I have a friend who designs video games and the struggle is always around the development of a world from a story that has too many holes in it. Terrain, weather, plants, people, animals and all the things that create an ecosystem which needs to make believable sense to the reader's. Anyways..... Just my uneducated opinion. 😊
Hey Nova. Definitely even when writing fantasy things 'not making sense' can be jarring and kick the reader out of the story. I've had this happen to me whilst reading before and I couldn't finish the book.
Just listened to the rest of your video and discovered that your live streams are 5:30 am. I think that is midnight my time. I'll try to join sometimes.
Thank you for watching Mary. You can always rewatch the livestreams and write along :-)
Hi Oyinda. It was such a breath of fresh air and encouraging to listen to you again. I got offline for a while because I was struggling with some depression. I unsubscribed to everyone and turned off my computer. I'm back and feeling better. You have no idea how much of a blessing you have been in my life. Thanks for all you do. Also, what time do you have your "Write with me?" I can't seem to catch you on time. ♥☺
Hi Mary. I'm so sorry to hear about your struggles. It happens to the best of us and we have to find comfort in whatever way we can. Thank you for such a kind comment. :-)
Love this vibe
Thank you so much Grace.
That view 😍
I love it! It's so inspiring.
Hiii again
There’s a book about writing by Ruta Sepetys and I hope you can know it’s there if you need help!
Thanks Will
Aww…. Oooh. I’m so excited to see what you wrote!
Thanks Will :-)
I am a writer, published author, and just finished my 1st Novel and 3rd book.My daughter is a graphic designer and is also marketing my book. I never knew that branding myself and having a website would get me Out there like it is.She put me on TikTok too. Your books need to be promoted there too. The handwriting is a lost art..it's your brand, and I hope your page takes off! 🎉
Thank you Victoria. I'm getting back on TikTok too. :-)
Hey i hope this session was good
It was very productive Maikeru. You were missed.
This is the reason i love fictional stories. I write from a perspective of being a good liar and also being the writer is like having a time machine. One can easily go back and fix or adjust the events.
Exactly. Writing fiction is simply fun :-)
Hi Oyinda, so was wondering when you stated you were handwriting it to put it into a computer and toss it in the bin. Do you feel handwriting the story helps you focus more and helps free up your creativity more? I ask because I've been really looking into the subject of handwriting my novels more before documenting them on the computer.
Hiya. Handwriting definitely makes me a lot more connected to the story. It's a magical feeling. My advice is to try it and see how it goes. It might unlock your creativity even further.
❤❤
<3
I love watching you write by hand. Your handwriting is so elegant. Thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you so much. It's great to get the feedback.
I bet your pages are really nice to look back on over time✨
They look amazing after awhile. They also make amazing wallpaper.
@ yess wallpaper👌🏽😍😍
I wish I had your handwriting! If I did I would handwrite all my stories!
What a lovely compliment. Thank you.
Hi, Oyinda. I've got to say, you've inspired me to be consistent with my writing. I just started a new draft for a new college romance I'm writing. I hope I can keep it up. Cheers.
I'm so glad. Consistency is definitely what is needed and difficult to maintain.
Hi Oyinda, lately I’ve been struggling to get back into my writing. I recently had to make a big move which required me to take a break from a lot of my personal projects for about 2 months. Now I’ve just been having a tough time getting back into it after taking that break. Do you have any experience with this kind of writers block, and if so what have you done to help jumpstart up an older in progress project?
I'm so sorry to hear this and it is extremely difficult. I'd say go for a walk, run or whatever you need to clear your head. Go back indoors and set your phone to a 15 minute timer and write the first thing that comes to your head. Write for 15 minutes. I'm sure you'll go on for longer.
❤ I agree with you, everyone needs a creative outlet of some type. Everyone!
Exactly ❤
Yay there back on Thank you so much See you on your live 😊❤😊❤😊
Such a beautiful timing 🙏🏼 Thank you
I'm glad it helped :-)
What an absolutely lovely video ❤ Your content is always so inspiring -thank you so much for sharing your gift with us🖤
You are so welcome!
That European accent is attractive on you ❤
❤❤
Thank you for creating this video. Now I feel less alone
Glad I could help
❤❤
“Even if the draft is rough. Perfection can always come later.” Thank you for another beautiful and inspiring video. I adore your content and your accent. Happy writing & happy Autumn!
Thank you 😊
I cannot wait to see the animatic of this!😂
Your video is super unique! Great narration and I loved the world-building scrapbook you showed us.
Thank you Gabby 😊❤️
Beautifully said!
Thank you 😊❤️
❤❤
😊
An author would be hard pressed to write worse than what history has already witnessed.
Exactly ❤️
People who think they can convert anybody is the real magician. You feel with your heart. Manipulation can be a form of the dark arts. An author that can reverberate a sense of fear on a page and have a reader experience that same , is more powerful then someone making anyone feel less of themselves for their own sake.
🤣 My thoughts exactly. You stated it in a much more eloquent way than I would have.
@@thefantasystoryteller How’s the lap top doing ? Can’t wait to catch up on some writing with you.
What a good idea ❤I only have access to my cell phone at work but I’ve recently started writing in google docs and I’m managing to get a bit of progress made here and there. My main issue, and I’d love to hear your suggestions about this, is getting my mind in the right ‘vibe’ to write while I’m at work.
I think the 15 minute sessions forces you into the right headspace as you go into a quick reset and have to get your words down. The timer is key especially when you know it's counting down. 😊
❤❤
❤️
Hey my dear, Miss you !!!!
Hello Kat. I'll be back online on Monday. My computer has died in spectacular fashion and I'm awaiting a replacement 😆
@@thefantasystoryteller Great !!! Then I’ll see you Monday, my dear.
"In that solitude, we find our voice." I agree, 100%. 💙💙💙
😊❤️
Boring, repetitive jobs are gold for a writer, you get the chance to daydream, while getting paid!!! Reverie = writing. 😊
Exactly 😅💯
❤❤
❤❤
I hope you are feeling better, Oyinda. Miss your videos and Write with Me sessions. ❤🙏🏾
Thanks Mary. I'm well however I'm currently without a laptop which is rather strange and awaiting a replacement 😊
@@thefantasystoryteller So sorry to hear that about your laptop. I'm sending good vibes your way that you will get it back very soon. So glad you are well and ok. You are such a beautiful soul. ❤☺
Nice essay! Did you know Aro in finnish means steppe?
Amazing. Probably very different pronunciations though 😁
This is wonderfully and painfully accurate.
I'm glad it resonates with you 😊
Yes🌹
Your videos are always so peaceful and inspiring. I’ve been struggling to maintain focus lately and I find watching your videos help to put myself in a productive mindset. ❤ Keep doing what you are doing!
I'm so glad!😊
Nice looking bit of country, really enjoyed that, thank you. I can't understand how people can live without some wild country close by, but to each their own I guess. I'm lucky enough to live on property that includes a section of natural bush, as well as having a creek frontage and a large nature reserve behind us. Australian, so I don't really have worries about anything eating me, so bonus. Just got to mind where I'm putting my feet 🙂
My thoughts exactly. ☺️
