What do you think? is that wrong?

Hi guys, just dropping a few articles about Creative Writing ✍️. Check in my classroom 📔 I’m continuously adding material, and I hope that by the end of March I’ll be able to provide the entire collection 📚. If you’re interested in writing a novel or a long essay, these articles can be very helpful.

After a long break from Skool, I’ve come back with a major body of work: a Masterclass I’ve been writing for the past year. Whether you’re writing a novel or a short story, the principles in the lessons from How to Write a Film Screenplay can help you understand what a story needs not just to be read, but to be remembered. Anyone can read, but only a few stories stay in the mind. I’ve read over a thousand novels and just as many essays (I’m in my forties, so that number is easy to imagine at my age), yet I remember with real clarity and enthusiasm only about 10–15% of what I’ve read. And I know I’m not the only one. I’m not saying I don’t remember the other books at all; I’m saying that 90% did not remain etched in my memory. I remember The Da Vinci Code—yes, good book—but if you ask me something specific about it, I probably wouldn’t be able to answer. I remember Siddhartha very well; if you ask me about it, I’ll very likely have an answer. Do you see the difference? So, the Masterclass is now published. I’ve started publishing Part Two, and at the moment, only some chapters are available. Even so, it is almost entirely complete. Inside the Masterclass, you’ll find examples and BONUS content connected to Carl Jung’s archetypes. Some key concepts are repeated across different chapters because the writing is academic; it isn’t designed for Amazon-style content or standard listicles. I built this Masterclass on a series of screenwriting lectures I attended at university years ago. That said, I realise this Masterclass may feel challenging for some readers, so in the future, there will also be sections on Creative Writing and Screenwriting in bite-sized form. No videos for now. We need to get back to reading if we want our brains to function at their best—otherwise, with the rise of AI, they shrink. In 2017, I took an intensive course in creative writing and journalism: a month and a half, five days a week, six hours a day. And I had to wake up at 5 a.m. to get there by 8:30.
