Good stuff, thanks.
Very nice. The examples are helpful. Looking forward to more videos from this author.
An excellent video, entertaining and relevant. Thank you Mr. Crilley!

Excellent video on dialogue. This is one of the trickiest things to talk about with other writers. I look forward to more content like this.
Makes me want to get back to the job of writing.
Quite informative. This video had me realizing what I’ve been doing wrong and what I’ve done correctly.
Thanks, Mark. Your illustrations are so apt.
