hey everybody my name's Elliot and I have a brilliant idea it's for a story a
very epic story in three parts a trilogy typical. I just don't have time to work
on it so I guess it doesn't really exist.
and a few years ago, I guess six years ago, I started writing it I wrote the
first part not really thinking of it being a trilogy necessary I just got
super inspired from Game of Thrones and The Dark Tower series by Stephen King
and I just got really inspired to sort of do some world-building of my own it
became very challenging the first like the first draft is always easy. I would
say um I will write for free but you'll have to pay me to edit because the
second draft is painful I went through the process of doing the second draft
and then I realize what I have bitten off how complex world building is and
complex writing about multiple characters multiple regions just a story
with so much history, politics, regional environments food it's yeah so and the
thing is I don't even have a full title for it I jumped around different titles
but the concept I know what it is that I want this thing to become so the
framework for this trilogy sort of playing on the idea of a god-like being
like a messiah or something like this I'm someone who is really influential to
not just civilization but like human existence and I want so like a Jesus
Christ sort of character but like a new world dystopian world Jesus is sort of
my idea so the first one will start before this
christ-like character is born the scenarios that unfolded upon his birth
so that's the first one the second one takes place when I'm gonna keep calling
him the price like character of as we go through the series you'll learn more
about him and what's his whole deal but for now just christ-like character so
the second book is about this sort of a Crusades kind of battle so that would be
the climax it's sort of what people will do via the influence of this person also
also sort of his influence within the world now that he's an adult so this is
the next piece like I don't I guess I don't fully know what happened to Jesus
it's betrayed and all that stuff yes like a following of people so that
happened is the second book and it ends with essentially a sacrifice of him then
the third is sort of about the world afterwards I haven't thought too much
about that it's sort of the writing of the Bible I guess like what how has his
influence impacted our existence different people reflecting on it and
coming together and trying to write this essentially tome of this person's life
so that is this idea that I have this epic story idea so what does this
youtube series gonna be about it's gonna be about me working through a writing
this ginormous piece of work and basically the idea here is every episode
I'mma pull paragraph that I've written sort of summarize what is happening and
together learning some techniques storytelling technique
grammatical techniques, grammatical rules i guess what's called drawing
inspiration from other works whether it be literary or film and television or
youtube itself different storytelling techniques that are write down and
improve on what we have is basically this the idea and yeah just keep making
this draft keep improving on it I don't I doubt this project will it ever get
finished I don't think that's the point I think the point of it is just to keep
telling this story this is not really gonna be a like a spoiler alert it's
kind of like what Lord of the Rings is now everybody kind of knows what
happened yeah it's it's more of just it's almost like a fanfiction
of my own piece of fiction that I haven't finished yet so we'll keep
building on that keep exploring different characters their motivation
keep exploring the different towns and cities and what caused the fall of this
place and yeah I don't know if there's ever been a YouTube channel where
someone explored writing in this style sort of an interactive style of writing
I'm excited to see how it all turns out it might turn out really great it might
be so painful so painful to watch but we'll see how it goes I don't know what
to call this show I will just go with
