"It's all about becoming unafraid of your own thoughts." Never thought about it that way, but it's true.
I planned to write everyday, but I said, later, and later. This one really kicks me hard! Thank you.
@Hakan hasşerbetçi yeah it sucks😑
Cheers to writing a journal/diary! I have about 35-40 books of varying sizes filled with entries, going back about 14 years. Although the last 9 years have the most consistent amount of entries. I have been planning to mine them for writing. It is a great resource to have, it's crazy the amount of small stuff you forget about.
Wow, that's amazing. To you personally, why do you write🙂?
Journals and Diaries are excellent wells from which creative writing ✍ can flow. I once took a Writing Workshop on how to utilize one's personal Journals as the starting point for writing pieces of other forms, such as essays, poetry, and novels.
Being in touch with your inner self is the best thing you can do for yourself. There's so much hidden deep in the recesses of your mind that ends up being more useful for your self-disovery than you could possibly imagine
True af bhai
The fact that you were able to describe the events of a flat tire in such a beautiful way is amazing to me. You make something so mundane sound so interesting, it just blows my mind.
It's only now that I actually understand how useful a diary entry can be and add on more absurd value to a story, reminded me a lot of Camus' story telling and description methods. Great!
This is really random, but that is a really beautiful bicycle.
you really do sound older than you are. actually like a very wise man, ahead of time
It is amazing that you managed to make great, cohesive story from such simple event from your life. I loved all thoughts and description off environment along the way. I could never write like you.
Wanted to drop by and thank you for helping to carve out a place for the more human side of the humanities. Word nerds and writers and poets, oh my.
I created this account to start some work heavily inspired by your essay reading and these diary entry pieces. You having the honest courage and drive to share helped free me from the fear of starting. Much love!
I try to write fiction every day, but I don’t know if I could write about myself every day. Within just a few days, my writing would become very repetitive. It would basically be me complaining about how I’m depressed, poor, and lonely. However, I do make weekly videos about my writing process. I love talking about writing, but I hate talking about my personal life, even to myself.
I emphasise with a lot of that. Do you think of your fiction as 'personal'? What kind of relationship do you see between the writing and the reality? I often find this a limiting question to be asked, but I'm asking it anyway lol
@@user-fy9fr3bc7v It’s very complicated. Overall, I view fiction writing as an escape from reality. However, I also instill parts of myself into my work, usually on a subconscious level. Sometimes, we can more easily express ourselves through fiction.
Sane my life is boring so the only things I can talk about is my feelings and it'll just turn into a vent/rant
maybe you could focus on small things ? like, try and write about something you observed instead of writing about yourself. i usually find it easier to write about a small detail, and it might help you romanticise those tiny things. it’s just a thought of course ! :)
I think it's super cool how we each have our own experiences and how it affects us!! For example, you enjoy writing fiction because you create another universe and anything is possible, I love reading fiction but i cant write it for shittt, but whenever i pick my little notebook up, all I write about are my day to day experiences, my views on them, what I learned, little observations and it's the biggest stress relief for me
“I’m a little to young to think about that stuff. What happens to you when you die”. Sounds like a great beginning to a story.
I have never clicked so fast.
Yas surrender to Peer Pressure!! Please give us more podcast content!!
I like to find the overarching stories in my week and try to write them as soon as they end. Just to remember my week better, I don't even think I cared about dates, but now I can remember what happened since February. That's so nice
I'm thinking about starting something called "shorts", where everyday I write a little dumb story about my day, inspired by you
Let's goo cant wait for the podcast
man, the line “and what is the baby getting out of the bike ride?” makes me laugh every time :) nice work sir
Can't wait for your podcast!!! Really love your voice
YOU HAVEN'T INFORMED ME ABOUT ANY PODCAST WALDUN!!! WHaT!?
IDK!!!??
I just discovered your channel and I became a big fan. I'm in a very different niche but I feel like I could learn a ton from what you share. Keep up with good work!
Thank you. :)
I’ve been waiting for the announcement of the podcast let’s gooooo yay 😄😄
watching you and your videos is a million times more engaging than my uni profs, makes sense you’re a teacher :)
Yea I love your videos dude found them one day where I needed some direction or advice or some inspiration on my path in this mysterious world thanks man
I love the Diary entry you posted in the link!
so soothing
The story on your blog was *chef's kiss*! Your storytelling skills>>
Goodness that was a lovely little story, I hope you are proud of it.
Firstly, I love your channel and respect the effort you put into making your videos! The only thing I disagree with you on here is that you need to be at your desk to capture a great story. Personally, I have found that all of my most interesting entries have been written somewhere quite obscure where the environment seeps through into the writing. Maybe next time you get a flat tyre you should journal your way home when caught in the grip of the feeling.
Maybe I should voice memo my frustrations.
@@RCWaldun Yes!!! Screw the audiobook and resort to being that crazy guy biking around talking to himself. The true destiny of every great writer
This is a delightful book channel.
Sooooooo goooooooood. I loved it. So gooood. And so inspiring. Speachless
Know that every day is not a good day for writing but show up for work. Practice self compassion. But show up for work. Writer's block is such an easy excuse. Great writing will knock the living daylights out of you. Everyone should experience it.
Very excited man you can carry me through your stories without even trying😃👍🏾👍🏾
amazing narration!
My English teacher always gives assignment to write everyday
Gosh the best story about a bicycle that I've ever listen to 😄
Wow I am lucky I ve been keeping a diary since I was 7, now I am in my twenties
Your videos are like podcasts to me man, I play it and ride my way to work 😁😁😁
One day I decided to write my diary in reverse, since I haven't keep a diary before. Ive gone back ten years so far.
I can't stop judging people who walk while using their phone after Fran Lebowitz said she does it too
Fran Lebowitz is such a mood. 😂
Love your voice
I am reading that book.
hello!! I have been trying to get back into reading ever since I left it during high school. Do you recommend anything that I should start out with?
Anyone else really love to know where he got that bicycle? It's gorgeous!
So, question: Do you write your day as you go along it, or do you write down what happened in your day at the end of it?
What’s a baby doing on the back of a bicycle? Love the story.
This video made me think, I’m behind in English because of high school. I basically missed 11th and 12th grade English due to the type of school I transferred to. I failed English 001 twice. If I were to learn basic HS composition for writing essays and such I could feel confident taking English 001 again. Where would be a good starting point to be an adult self teaching how to write basic stuff again?
I totally agree with you I'd like to exchange some ideas, congratulations for the video!
Greetings from Mexico.
I loveee the bag at 05:26. Link, please?
Watching this, I feel like I’m listening to audible.
My journal just ends up being a todo/done list every day 😭
This guy is not playing around solid writing haha
Not that I know shit about writing but that was really engaging 😂😁
How was that so awesome!?!?!
in my opinion you don't have to write everyday , just write when you feel like it . write when your head is full of things to write about
Wait until you find out dutch people put 2 or sometimes 3 kids into bike seats. Also 1 at the front
Magnífico.
Will you apply to MFA programs?
I fail in spontaneity. I write then stop, then write, then stop. sighs
That bicycle tho-
A video about writing every day uploaded on my birthday. The 14th birthday of a serial procrastinater. What an irony.
sorry for a random question, are you 20 yrs old for real?
Lol yeah, he is
Something nonsensical.? That sounds like what I might be… Do you have anyone to recommend? :)
I can’t copy your routine because I am an adult in the real world. We start in the morning and go to bed in the evening.
Love the Jesus Christ bit. hahahahaha!
7:00 I was absolutely certain you'd start off with "He's too drunk to ride it"...
I quess we came from diffrent cultures, bud.
Your last video helped me to began an art project that links photography and daily "personal" writing and this one is so motivating to pursue my art serie ! Thank you.
(excuse me if my english isn't perfect I am a french tiny artist)
How is it that when you have that haircut, you look so nice but when I have the same haircut, I look like Javier Bardem in No Country for Old Men.
I don’t think your ever too young to contemplate death I fact the younger the better it give you more perspective sooner
You re charming
Try not to have a midlife crisis when you turn thirty, that's way too young 😂
Are people any different from one another? Any would like to answer that question? Even if you work hard to make something how are you different? No offense here!
lol why would your midlife crisis be at thirty? are you planning to only be here until sixty?
