I apologise for this video being late. Just had a few scheduling issues, but it's here now! This is half an On Writing video and half media analysis. But speaking of the writing series, On Writing and Worldbuilding: Volume II is officially coming this December! 

If you didn't know, On Writing and Worldbuilding is a compilation of the discussions in the on writing and worldbuilding series into a book that has been edited, rewritten, and refined to be a hell of a lot easier to reference and study than a bunch of videos. Volume I also has an exclusive chapter on how I plan a novel, while Volume II has over 12,000 extra words worth of detail—better examples, more detail, just MORE. 

I genuinely didn't expect Volume I to sell more than 2,000 copies, but here we are, 30,000 copies sold later. It spurred me to put way more into Volume II, and I think really shows. Thank you for you support. Without you, I couldn't afford my editor, my cover artist, or any of the other little costs that come with it.

Stay nerdy,

Tim

This piece made me realise how soft worldbuilding is exactly my thing! It was very inspiring, re-affirming, and encouraging for someone like me who is so far out on the story-telling end of the sprectrum. Thank you, Tim, this is why I support you <3

Congratulations on the book release :) I don't have Vol 1- is Vol 2 the first book updated? Or is it a sequel? In other words, should I buy both, or just vol 2? Cheers, Libby
