Synopsis

Writing advice tends to be full of 'rules' and 'tips' which are either too broad to be helpful or outright wrong. In On Writing and Worldbuilding, we will discuss specific and applicable ideas to consider, from effective methods of delivering exposition and foreshadowing, to how communication, commerce, and control play into the fall of an empire.

From the Author

This book is the culmination of nearly two years of work creating educational content for people of all ages on YouTube. Millions of people have watched my videos. I've had teachers say they use my content in their classrooms. I've had young writers tell me it helped them finally start their book. I've had old writers tell me it got them over a hurdle they've been working at for three years. Those are the highest I could have been paid, and they're the reason that I'm excited to bring this book out. I loved putting it together as a new experience, but also because I genuinely do have a passion for education - for getting this sort of content out there!I hope this book makes a difference in your writing, as thinking through all of this over the years has for me.Stay nerdy,Tim
