Fun with writers block

Published: May 2nd 2022, 12:51:07 am

So since maybe February I've been planning a follow up to the edgelord video. I've even done interviews with some prominent content creators for it. But over time it ballooned into my magnum opus on the manosphere that I swore I would never do...

It's 14000 words long right now and I'm maybe 70% done!

As it hit the 10k mark this week I got stuck something awful. I couldn't figure out how to pull all of these various ideas and arguments together, like in one section I'm talking about batman and in another I'm talking about Fresh and Fit... it was a mess.

So randomly I call the homie Cj the X. Cj for those who don't know has THE best Bo Burnham video in the streets for my money, yes even better than mine and is one of only a few creators that i watch whatever they put out instantly. Despite being extremely different we think a lot alike, we even both made our first video about Hamilton...

His Bo Burnham video is over 2 hours long (the likely length of this video) and he tackles so many fricken topics and issues but it feels connected, you get why all these different things are related. I asked him how he managed that in the writing process.

I won't tell you what he told me cause I want it to manifest in the video, but it worked. It got the keyboard percolating again.

Anyway just suddenly felt like sharing this feeling of relief and I don't post enough stuff, especially for all the new Patrons, thanks for coming yall. This video is set for the 23rd... hopefully.

Peace and Blessings,

F.D
