I have been doing. A lot of Binge watching of YouTube videos these days as I have all the time in the world. I have been watching video’s of guru’s politicians, thinkers and statesmen alike, a lot of these people have begun to seep into my writing as characters in my stories and books. I do make changes here and there but they give me a reference point to start. I have built a few in my stories and given them a texture and an aura and then I play with them. People weave them into my book and start and then give them a shape and make them come alive on paper. These are real people I watch on YouTube and learn from and hear talk day in and day out they are a great raw material for interesting characters fro my story. Rather than watch films and web-series to get ideas I prefer YouTube videos where people are real and more alive they can be etched better into stories.
It is a great space to get inspirational spiritual guru, politicians, spokespersons and head off sate like characters, some good writers and creative types are also there. Blogging requires a lot of storytelling and you can take a lot of that by watching YouTube videos and build their talk also in the story, you get a good idea from there talk about there mannerisms and bent of mind also there beliefs and philosophies.
So get inspired and watch some YouTube build some exciting ebooks and tell some fantastic stories.
