Hello readers and writers!
Today, I talk about how to write action like Abercrombie and King.
In the video, I break down using description, energy, environment, stakes, clarity, time, and vocabulary to enhance your action writing.
I also use excerpts from The Blade Itself, The Gunslinger, and The Golden Academy to help solidify my points.
I hope you all, and I hope it helps you write engaging action sequences!
I've been trying my best to get videos out to you all in a timely manner while I write a new novel. Thank you for your patience and support.
My next video will be "How to cross the 50,000 word mark for your novel."
My instagram, @ericbowdenbooks is the best place to receive video updates as I am not yet able to make community notes on Youtube.
I also have a subreddit /r/thegidoriansaga where you can personally ask me questions about the books!
Happy reading and writing, and I'll see you guys next time!
