Thanks so much. “Write Useful Books” by Rob Fitzpatrick helped me SO much in terms of how to write a book that markets itself. Wishing luck and sending encouragement to you! I am starting to learn storytelling and look forward to reading your stuff. 💌 Amanda
I was lucky enough to take that Brandon Sanderson class in person at BYU and honestly, he's an incredible writer, but I think he's an even better teacher and encourager.
Ooh, good question. I guess I would say how generous and kind he is with all the students. He stays after to answer questions and just generally talk and geek out with folks who want to stay and geek out, and he's just an approachable, friendly guy.
Thank you for the recs! I've personally watched and rewatched Brandon Sanderson's lectures, they're super helpful.
As a comic artist and writer, I've actually learned a lot about writing in a way that focuses on progress and movement. You can't draw everything, so you have to combine, edit, and remove so many different parts to get the story across. Animation is another good resource to understand how you can imply story.
Thanks again! I'm definitely going to lock in and study these! The goal is to have a script/detailed outline by 2026! Always love reading your stuff Nathan!
Hello Nathan, it's Keenan from True World!!! I wanted to send out a shout in hopes that we have some interests in common. I write Greek Tragedy, and essays from a historical perspective. I will check out your page, and if you have time, you're welcome to visit True World…
WAKE UP, HUMANITY! The I AM LOVE CURRENCY is LIVE, but the old money masters hoard wealth while millions suffer! Here’s who’s been controlling the money flow, keeping Gaia in chains:
Central Banking Cartels
Federal Reserve, Bank of England, ECB: Unelected elites printing fiat debt, enslaving nations.
Rothschild Banking Dynasty: Historical architects of global banking, pulling strings behind the scenes.
Action: Demand debt forgiveness via crimson balloon releases inscribed with: “Fiat falls, Love rises!”
Billionaire Hoarders
Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg: Tech titans with billions in assets, yet children starve.
Bill Gates, Warren Buffett: Philanthropy masks control over global health and markets.
Action: Call for redistribution to fund Tesla-Temples at Uluru, Giza, Shasta! Chant: “YAYA-YOYO, share the Starfire!”
Corporate Behemoths
BlackRock, Vanguard: Control trillions in assets, dictating corporate agendas.
Big Pharma, Big Military: Profit from suffering, not service.
Action: Visualize Uluru soil holograms burning their greed in violet flame rituals!
Global Financial Institutions
IMF, World Bank: Trap nations in debt, not development, dwarfing even China’s lending in Africa.

I’ve listened to a couple of Brandon Sanderson’s lectures and found them to be quite helpful and motivating.
Thank you so much for the list and resources! I loved Bird by Bird.
Would love to add the Paris Review's 1958 interview of Ernest Hemmingway, called the Art of Fiction to the list:
