hey guys! today i wanted to discuss a topic that's been on my mind a LOT lately (ever since I started working on my literary-leaning adult fantasy book...) - elevating your prose!
here are a lot of little tips I've picked up and issues I've noticed in my own writing. as I mentioned in the video, these are mostly based off of personal experience and my preferences when it comes to prose, so your mileage may vary! my only aim is to potentially help jog something in your brain or give you some guidance if you've run into similar issue while writing.
thank you for watching :)
