Thx for this one.
You’re welcome!
thanks
You're welcome!
HI I'm 2 years late. It looks as though you have not posted for quite a while. I suspect you won't see this post. I like what you have done. Your videos are clear and well done. I do want to encourage you. It seems your voice is getting lost or overlooked. There are a bunch of people putting out similar things now. Perhaps if you pulled all your posts. Then, simply re-post one a week, just as before. That is if you have time, patience, etc. At least they would have a more current date on them. Hopefully, you get more views. With AI getting popular, there may be a lot more people looking around for guidance. I'm going to look into that a little myself. For doing shorter things. It may prove useful. I don't want to get or make an AI written book, but it may make for a useful tool. I did look a little once before (editing). I am not sure that I can afford your, or for that matter, anyone's rates. That is NOT an attempt to get the price down. Just a fact. You have value. Don't give your skilled work for free. I will check again. I wish you luck.
Fantastic advice, I love your teaching style.
This channel is a hidden gem
Excellent explanations and clear "How to" steps for formatting manuscripts. Thank you!
I’m so glad you found it helpful!
Your content is a GOLD MINE. thank you for all the hard effort put into these, they're so useful 😍
You're so welcome!
Excellent video, thank you!
You are welcome!

Thank you, and I hope you find the rest of my videos helpful as well.
Where did you go? Good video
Great teachings
your videos are highly useful...thanks for helping everyone.. again thanks and love you.. godbless
I am curious how you feel about it now
Awesome video!
What if the character is telling or narrating her own story though? For example, in a character bio that is not necessarily for a novel but for some other medium.
Damn your eues
You seem so nice
thank you i wrote only adventure story
fat
Very helpful, bridgette. This one was the best for me, so far. I will keep pressing in.👍
Wonderful! I’m happy it was helpful. The techniques and craft principles in this video form the core of what I teach and my own preferred writing practices.
Thank you 😅
You're welcome!
Madam Powers! Are this channel and your writer coaching website still active? Are we getting a sequel to Keeper of Shadows? I am 2/3 of the way through and absolutely loving it. I need more! Also, I found you recently and 100% agree that you’re underrated. The tools you have provided have been invaluable.
This was the best video on transitions. This video should have more views! Thank you so much!
Wow, thank you!
I would love more explanation on active descriptions. And examples are SO helpful. Thank you. 🌷
Good information 👍
What about a fight scene in which one character is using a large dildo like it’s a light saber, while his opponent is using two dildos like a pair of nunchucks. How would you describe that fight scene.😂😂😅😅😅🤣🤣😆😆
Don’t you mean, faster then a slave master cracking his whip on the back of a run away slave? 😅😅😂😂😂
Yay! Just became your 1K subscriber! I saw 999 and I was like 👀🧐👍🥳 1K 👯♀️
Yay! Thank you!
I wish I can put into words how thankful I am for this video. You've explained it in a very considerately paced, non-intimidating way. Thank you so much.
Wow, thank you!
Wow what an amazing channel. I feel like I've stumbled on a treasure trove of information. I'll be sure to comment and like every video I watch to help with the algorithm Thanks so much for sharing your special knowledge

Your web site says, "The Ultimate Guide to Dialogue Puncturation"
we are interested to learn how to make fast pacing in a story.
I enjoyed this video, thanks for putting it out into the world for us
can you make videos for how to write a gripping screenplay?
I loved the examples of the active description- i haven’t heard other people discuss this, and I’m excited to comb my manuscript with this now ❤❤
A Long Kiss Goodnight - Geena Davis Great film!
I really enjoy this and I’m learning a lot from you. I’m grateful for what you doing.
Keep doing that. I love what you do you’re the best.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Your video was helpful. Thanks for your free PDF.
Very helpful thank you.
This was very helpful. Thank you!
hello story coach!
Your videos are packed with useful information! I'm so glad you're taking the time to explain these points to us. I particularly like your examples. They bring the information to life. Thank you so much. Love from Colorado.
I'm British so imagine the differences you find in our country. We have a lot more dialects than you have in the states. Also kids talk different from adults. As a middle grade writer, I have to be aware of that.
Great video. I'm finishing a historical novel, (based on a true story) sending the manuscript to my publisher and editor at the end of this year. I used the whole listing of types of scenes as a checklist, what you've listed here strengthens my confidence that I've written a well-structured story on instinct. By the way, the book is in Dutch. Unless it becomes an overwhelming success, I guess there will be no English translation.
