@JennieEVasquez Trying to write a YouTube video script, video essay style but it's a struggle

[Makena Marshall @MakenaMar]

Has anyone here written a video script? What do you think about when writing for video vs to be read.

Instead of asking why do you write, I want to know: why do you publish?

Why make yourself so vulnerable?

In an age of oversaturated markets, declining readership and eroding media literacy, why pursue publishing?

Does anyone here write in Medium? The mobile app is so frustratingly glitchy - I wonder if it's a common issue.

Stranger Things has reminded me of the power of storytelling. Every once in a while there's a story like that that reminds you why you do this.

Jennifer Lawrence on what keeps her going as an actor:

“I can't imagine if I had to digest the world without being able to purge it out in some sense, or if there was nowhere for complex feelings to go. I love stories. I process everything through art. It’s my existence.”

Just finished "The Bean Trees" by Barbara Kingslover. Although not my favourite from her, all of her characters are so unique and have their own voice it's a learning experience as a writer to read her novels.
