As a fellow writing student, "that's something I wrote, I hope you don't hate it" is possibly the most relatable feeling! Also, I thought it was great 😄
4:33 It's true that I will take every opportunity to fangirl about Schitt's Creek, but that show is genuinely a MASTERCLASS is dialogue writing. Each character comes with their own personal dictionaries, vocabularies and speak in such a unique style all throughout the six seasons. I love the show as audience, but their special about how they made it was also soo interesting, as they talked about the process of writing the show, building each character from their backstory to their wardrobe and then writing each individual episode and arcs
It's so lovely seeing your slice-of-life vlogs! I moved from England to Asia around the same time that you moved to America, so it's been nice to see your explorations and it inspires me to record my time living abroad too. Thanks for another fab video, Jack! Glad to see you're enjoying New York!!
Thanks so much for showing so much of NYC. Lived there in my youth 1980's and it was a very special time. I attended both the New School and NYU for writing and worked in journalism for most of those years. I still make it back several times a year and it never gets old, though covid took some of its might away and I know NYC and it will recover. Loved the glimpse of your life.
What a great video! I’m way out of your demographic, but I’ve followed you since you were in Uni and seen you grow and change. I’m so envious of this new chapter in NYC. What energy and excitement!
seeing jack work so hard for his dream life and also be so carefree about life at the same time is so motivating, assuring that everything is going to be okay and he is just so wholesome☺🥺 P.S Jack we are waiting for your book(No pressure tho but like the anticipation is killing me)👀
that was the perfect treat during a Sunday morning, thank you Jack for sharing all these good vibes, I've never seen NY as a city I would enjoy (Italian from Milan, living in Paris) but this vlog changed the way I look at it now. Glad you're living it to the fullest!
Does anyone else ever feel like when you watch these types of videos, you’re watching your friend grow? Jack, I feel like your videos have become so much more than what drew me to your account in the beginning, book recs. Your videos have been my happy escape during darker times. I think it helps that we are close (ish) in age and learning some of the same valuable life lessons, but you are now the comfort of an old friend and I love to see you thriving. You have earned all of this and I hope your exciting ventures remain plentiful. Thank you 💙
I can’t tell you how proud I feel to see you grow, travel a thriving in your elements. It’s both generous and inspiring that you share your success with us, so thank you.
the horror books coming in that cool box where every drawer is a book is so dope, had never seen that before. also yes jack flexing with the valentino sponsor and yes with fashion and literature collaboration!
hi jack! you're living my dream (i did tv writing and prose writing at undergraduate level but would love to take it to a masters level). tv writing is so much fun! dialogue is key, but once you've got that nailed it's honestly so lovely to write. sometimes when writing my short stories, i would use tv writing to plan out how i wanted the scene to go and then add prose in, in place of stage directions. i used to have workshops where "the writer was dead" like yours - where you can't explain your process to others critiquing. it was always so fun reading other people's scripts and giving feedback, but so nerve-wracking when your own work was critiqued. however, once you get to know the people on your course quite well, it's always a lovely experience and you can feel everyone growing and progressing throughout. always such a fun process, i miss it so much. let's hope we are both successful in the creative writing world
I just have to say, your willingness and ability to travel the world chasing what you love is so admirable. I would LOVE to experience little bits of life in different places, but often I simply do not have the nerve to confidently go and DO it. I hope you are able to continue as long as you want to travel! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us!
Idk why this vlog made me emotional. It is a so nice to see you enjoying this brand new life in NYC. This video made it feel like everything is possible if you put enough work and passion into it. Hope we get more of those, good luck with your book ❤
Living in NYC must be wonderful for inspiration to write a book. People watching in the city surely could help bring some ideas. It's good to see you having a wonderful time there and having met some good people to help navigate and see/do things you may not have otherwise.
Jack is living the dream aha, it’s amazing that you get to do what you love for a living!!! :D Also guys, the 📚Book Club📚 is reading Jane Eyre for November! It’s a community dedicated to just Jack’s viewers :) and there’s nearly 1,900 of us! (details in replies if you want to join!)
This video is filled with optimism and positive energy I feel like TH-cam is really missing that.. this felt like watching vlogmas form Zoella totally In love Jack good job 🤍
Jacks dialog reminded me of a really lovely movie staring Sarah Paulson and Mark Duplass called Blue Jay. Its about 2 high school sweethearts who's paths cross again years later and both their lives are in totally different places. Would defo recommend a watch :D
Genuinely great dialogue. At that turning point, I felt my heart sink - I almost wish you hadn’t extrapolated your ideas after, because I felt like the ambiguity of what *exactly* their history is adds so much.
Firstly, I love how you have shot and edited this. Dreamy 😍 I'm also blown away by your motivation. It's so nice to see people invest in their passions x
I'm about to graduate from my creative writing course and i'm so glad you're doing it! it's been such an amazing experience and i've met some of the absolute best writers and people. our last assessment was pretty similar with the outline/full screenplay and let me just tell you it is so hard but SO SO rewarding! good luck!!!!
I minored in creative writing. Dialogue is absolutely the most difficult part of any writing for me too. Making it seem natural is a challenge, but what you shared with us was wonderful! I really enjoyed it.
Just now bumped on your videos and subscribed to your channel and I ohsolove you! I'm from India. Obsessive reader, Literature PostGrad. You're so full of positive, lively vibes and your book reviews and discussions are not only sharp and precise but what's amazing is how clear-headed you are about your thoughts and what you speak(say about how men avoid Romance genre or why you think it necessary to shout out under-represented niches like Black romance Etc). You're awesome! And super cute too! I so wish you were in India! I'd sure have loved to go out with you. All my warm love and good wishes to you boy!
Really loved this video and how you embrace life, it’s inspiring. Appreciate your vulnerable moment sharing your work, which you shouldn’t be insecure about as it was great 🙌
Dressing gown sounds so dramatic to me😂😂 I love seeing you enjoy yourself here in New York! I was nervous that you’d regret it after your stories about your first time in the subway or being mugged but I’m glad you’re safe and thriving! Love your videos as always🖤
Love McNally! Also, I took fiction writing with Gotham as well. I had a really great experience with them, I hope you are too. If you’re ever looking for additional writing feedback, the Brooklyn Public Library hosts creative writing workshops each week for free. It’s a free write session where people can choose to share or not. It was a great way to just try new things with other writers.
I love you sharing your writing. We are all so excited for your upcoming novel! I'd pre-order it years in advance if I could. Side note: your handwriting is so nice.
2 minutes silence to pay respects to Jacks back for carrying youtube
top tier comment 😌
pay respect where it’s due fr
Truth in itself 😂✨
🙏
HAHAHAHA period.
If you can write this incredible dialogue in a couple of minutes, your book will be a bestseller! Great job!
Agree, I was hooked 😂
My thoughts exactly!!!! His book will be a bestseller period💯
I second that!

yeah ive never watched a show that has such natural, realistic diaouge it feels so representive of real life
Ok time to live my life vicariously through Jack Edwards for 24:01
It's so lovely seeing your slice-of-life vlogs! I moved from England to Asia around the same time that you moved to America, so it's been nice to see your explorations and it inspires me to record my time living abroad too. Thanks for another fab video, Jack! Glad to see you're enjoying New York!!

Seeing Jack being so happy with his Valentino jacket and gifts made me smile.
Quote of the Day: “You know how some people say their body is like a temple. Mine is like a dilapidated old garden shed.”
seeing jack work so hard for his dream life and also be so carefree about life at the same time is so motivating, assuring that everything is going to be okay and he is just so wholesome☺🥺
P.S Jack we are waiting for your book(No pressure tho but like the anticipation is killing me)👀
wow wow wow the VIBES in this vid! Jack you are thriving and we LOVE to see it!!
that was the perfect treat during a Sunday morning, thank you Jack for sharing all these good vibes, I've never seen NY as a city I would enjoy (Italian from Milan, living in Paris) but this vlog changed the way I look at it now. Glad you're living it to the fullest!
your lil writing bit with the dialogue caught me by such surprise, and it gave me chills
please, drop more content about your writing classes! we’d love to see your progress ❤

Is no one gonna mention the fact that this video is an ad for VALENTINO?????? Get that bag Jack omg!!!!
The dialogue is brilliant. Your puns, a close second.
Does anyone else also want Jack's job sm😭
everyone really
it's a dream
ooh, would it be bad to say i want him?
Same, it'd be my dream job but I don't think I'm creative enough, so even just being a beta reader or an editor would be immaculate
the horror books coming in that cool box where every drawer is a book is so dope, had never seen that before. also yes jack flexing with the valentino sponsor and yes with fashion and literature collaboration!
I’m a very sick mom at home and this video was the positivity break I needed ❤️ love seeing you continuing to be you
jack that dialogue was really good like REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD !!!

you’re taking the world by storm jack i’m so proud to see how far you’ve come !
I can't wait for 5yrs to pass by and to be able to witness the growth and success Jack will reach. I never get tired of hearing about his adventures!
I just have to say, your willingness and ability to travel the world chasing what you love is so admirable. I would LOVE to experience little bits of life in different places, but often I simply do not have the nerve to confidently go and DO it. I hope you are able to continue as long as you want to travel! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us!
Jack writing a novel is such an exciting thing. If you ever publish it I’ll order it as fast as I can.
It's so nice and it feels so warm to see Jack so genuinely excited about the life he lives! No pretense here, and I'm living for it! 🥺
“It’s breaking my heart, but like, in a cool way” is the most jack version of harry styles saying crying in a cool way
Jack declaring himself a New Yorker while calling his sweater a "jumper" 🤣
I never call it a jumper. Who calls it that these days?
