      Bad ideas can sometimes boost your imagination and ego because it then gets you dreaming about what you could have done with the material. Whereas if you see a really great film it can sort of both inspire you but also psyche you out wondering how you could ever top it.

    What I've been learning from Alan Moore: Becoming a writer is a journey of self - discovery and creativity. It requires courage to share your thoughts and emotions with the world through words. Remember, every great writer started as a beginner, facing challenges and doubts along the way. Embrace the process, trust your unique voice, and allow your passion for storytelling to guide you. Write with authenticity, pour your heart into every word, and never underestimate the power of your story to inspire, connect, and make a difference. Believe in yourself, persevere through the inevitable rejections and setbacks, and keep honing your craft. The world is waiting for your story - so pick up that pen, unleash your imagination, and let your words soar.

    Hero, and so true. During covid lock down I decided to re read the classics from my childhood. Began with collective works of HG Wells and Jules Verne. Loved them and decided to research who's writing this form of classical SC FI today. Got directed to a "steampunk" novel and it was dreadful. Threw the book down and said to anyone who was within earshot that I could do better myself. First novel due to be published soon. Go for it people it can be achieved

      Like a fool, though, I wrote a few hundred thousand words of DnD adventures. I'm delighted by what we published, and I have heard from many gamers about how I enriched their lives (the campaign even helped link up a couple who's now married), but man it was a lot of work.

    "Reading is the gateway drug for writing. Read with an analytical eye." So often, nowadays, I meet people who claim to write but don't read. I've met people who claimed they just didn't enjoy reading but loved writing stories. I've met people who claimed they didn't want to read anything because it might influence their writing etc. Which is ridiculous. A lot of people seem to suddenly want to write not because they like books. But because they like movies. Often these people seem to think that they're very creative and thus they must be great story tellers. They watched a movie or two and decided that they can do better. But because it's nigh impossible to become a hollywood writer without the right connections, nepotism or success, they figure they will write books instead. Except they don't know the first thing about books or how to write properly. They try to write movies. And the most agregious argument for this is "I don't want to get influenced" .. as if movies, games etc aren't influencing you. Of course you're going to be influenced by something. If not by other writers, movies, shows, games then by your own experiences or people in your life. It's completey normal to be influenced by others, to take inspiration and to make it your own.

    I gotta say I think he's right about everything except the bit about devices.
    You shouldn't abandon a device merely because you used it before and you recognize that you're using it. You should see it as a tool and that as a tool, it has certain kinds of effects that are can be modulated to change meaning. A device is effective when it does what it's supposed to do, but it is doubly effective when it supports what is being said. The word "said" there is tricky. I mean said from above, as in what the writer is telling you outside of what is happening in the story.
    It's probably best not to get too wrapped up in these things until the story is complete, then you can fool around with which device does what where and what makes a piece cohesive/coherent and so on.
    I haven't achieved the status of Alan Moore, but that shouldn't stop you from evaluating his advice to determine if it really works for you. I think it's great that he's used his platform to help people make good art.

    "Now I want you to write ME a better world, because this one is COMPLETELY FUCKED"
    Yeah, I want someone to write me a better world too, preferably one where there's capybaras and velociraptors living together...... I'll probably have to write that one myself tho... I guess.

    I happen to have the same haircut (not the beard though thank God it wouldn't suit me).
    Is that a sign? I will take it as one
    This is the best advice on writing I have ever heard said in simple words from someone who is not serving word salad or bs like millions of other videos
    I am very grateful

      wait, you think the working class hero, who still lives in the same ex-council house in his home town he always has, is secretly leading a double life as an ultra-capitalist elitist?
      You take that back! then wash your mouth out with soap, then apologise to Mr Moore

    I am pretty surprised about your open hearted attitude regarding W R I T I N G. I d like to live in a world full of love, peace, magic, freedom and so on with a lot of wild life and mother nature in full conditions without horrible perturbations in the elemental sources - air water soil and life --- but I was wondering what do you mean by writing and changing the world but only for some few special persons? I prefer the whole bunch of variety from the upper to lower levels ....really happy to hearing about you in another today and afterwards finding you distributing helpful recommendations not for my carreer but for my life. Really nice awesome lovely greetings Crissy

    I was questioning his whole point of “writing is for everyone” tbh.
    Then, I found out that Marjorie Taylor Green is a published writer.
    I’m already writing my first book as we speak because if a tin-foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist can write a published story, I can too. I have to say, as much as I despise the old bat, she is inspiring.
