Writing is a lot like having a full time volunteer job. It's been hard, but I wouldn't trade the experience for all the money in the world!

  • Coming from a girl who isn't a twi-hard. It isn't that Bella and Edwards love was obsessive, it's that it was so intense and deep that it could with stand certain things--such as death--and could by-pass even death. Edward and Bella weren't obsessed, they were IN a truly deep heavy love. I think your idea is set on a good base, But you shouldn' t say your trying to fix the damage Meyer has done. Because either way, the book--most likely--will not be as popular as twilight anyway.

  • @summerwonder101 For someone claiming to not be a Twi-Hard, you sure sound exactly like one. I've presented my argument; the burden of proof to back up your claim is on you now. I am interested in seeing your evidence.

  • So, I definitely adore your channel. I first started watching after searching for a sane approach to Twilight. Your book sounds amazing-- very REAL in my mind. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate fantasy books, but I can't stand the 'books' that are really just a fecal pile of words strewn together (twilighttwilighttwilight).

    Keep the video's coming! I'll be watching!

  • I hope it's realistic enough. One of my friends said I wrapped everything up a bit too nicely. I really wanted it to have a happy ending.

  • That sounds like something I'd really enjoy. I hope you're able to get it published because if I see it on the shelves I'll be sure to buy a copy. I want to be a writer but I've realized I have a bad habit of starting something and obsessively writing it for a while. Then I get bored and write maybe a chapter every few months or discontinue it entirely. And this is just with fanfiction. So I might not have what it takes but I'll see what the future holds.

  • You have to treat writing like it's a job you don't get paid for. That's the only way I finished.

  • You should make a video talking about your main characters. That's what I wanna do.

  • You look pretty in braids.

  • Digimon fanfic FTW!! 5 hours a day. You are basically a huge inspiration and encouragement, I'm still in the concept stages of a young adult fantasy novel. This is purely for my pleasure but who knows maybe i'll get published.

  • @shmeiliarockie My evidence is purley based on realism. Love like Edward and Bella's happens everyday. And I'm not a twi-hard. I think Stephanie is a "not so good" writer, and that she could've done a much better job getting the story out. My argument though, is more a reality based. When you love someone--mostly at a young age--it's hard to let go. It's hard to walk away, you want them with you, you want them period. It's not healthy. But it happens. I still don't think twilight is bad for kids

  • im trying to do the same with stephanie meyers wrath its ridiculous.

  • *cheers* GO SHMEILIA!!!

  • Hi I am a big YA reader (my favourite is John Green, obviously!) - I found this video looking for aspiring writers like myself on Youtube. I'd love to hear where this is going/ how it went. If you would like to check out a reading of a bit of my superhero story I am working on on my channel, I would really appreciate it!

  • Hmm we have almost similar plot lines. But I'm a petrachan thus I'm pro love. 

  • @michbgf Surely you have real life friends or relatives who would look it over for you?
