Ballads are the perfect cheat code for storytellers. You can share some lore while treating listener to delicious music and when you’re done - the song will get stuck in their head, forever reminding them of your creation. Never ending advertisement for the price of few rhymes and a chord, muhahaha!

Do you know any modern ballads that could easily work in some fantasy universe? Or maybe even contemporary ones with some universal motifs?

There are no more cool worlds and stories than those with interesting cultures - and if those cultures are based on the real people and places? That's even more awesome!

Creating art and promoting our cultures is a very powerful combo and I hope this yapping video will inspire you to do just that 😊

"The Fallen Gods" series is a very nice story with cool worldbuilding and amazing characters. It should definitely be talked about more than it currently is.

I did it in my last video ("Writing diverse characters", go check it out!) and I will for sure do that again in the future.

Was this video an excuse to praise "Fallen Gods" series for 5 minutes straight? Maybe 🤭

Today I'm talking about - often forgotten, but still very important - one of the diversity flavors, disability. Why there should be more of it, how to write it and where to look for information.

New video's comming soon, but in the mean time-

Have you seen my latest video?
Have you ever wondered how to create nuanced characters?
Honestly, the answer is a bit nuanced itself. It's not simply about designing them a flaw or writing down a list of curious quirks.
So how does it all work? Come and find out!

Having a lot of various interests can be confusing or overwhelming by itself, but trying to find a connection between all of them is even harder.

Today I'm trying to do just that. Will I succeed and find the answer? Will I tell you a nice, little story, while at it?

Come and find out! 😁

As you're probably aware, I'm not a native english speaker.
This means I sometimes make a mistake and some of those mistakes are funny...

After talking about various cheap crafts for months, I thought it would be nice if I make an introduction to crafting overall.
So here is my suggested list of ten tools one needs to be ready for any craft coming their way!

Do you know that I'm making YT videos for half a year now? And it just happened that the last video of Spring Spinning connects perfectly with my first ever introductory video!

So, grab your fabric scraps and give this video a watch! 😁

Have you ever looked at something and went: "I want this, but my version"? If so, the world of customization awaits!

Funko customization, though similar to doll customizing, has its own flavor to the whole process. Take a look at this video and don't forget to blink!

Want to listen to two vtubers talking about vtubing? I know, there is quite a lot of videos like that, but have you ever watched one focused on the low-entry-cost and artistry of being a moving image? 👀

Playing TTRPGs in person is super fun, but you quickly notice that you need much more materials to do so. For example, it's hard to battle an enemy with no miniature!
And if you'd like for your mini to be as custom as possible?
Well, let me tell you... 😁

Thanks to D&D, the popularity of TTRPGs grew exponentially in last few years and I think everyone at some point thought 'maybe...?', seeing how much fun other people have with playing pretend.
So...
Maybe you try? 😁

Finding a perfect place for writing ones' story can sometimes be as hard of a challenge as writing itself as a software may bound you with weird subscriptions or scrape your writing.
So... where should we write?
