A wild Taharkos appears!

Welcome back to ‘Max Plays’, a gaming segment where I play through a story-focused video game and examine the way that it builds a narrative. This time around I am playing through a big one! None other than Square’s finest: Final Fantasy IX. In this game we take the role of a ragtag party of characters, and partake in a story that at first appears to be about war between two great nations— but there’s more to it than meets the eye. Prepare for what the creator of Final...

In today’s writing video, I talk about what to do when you’re literally caught between a rock and a hard place: how dramatic should a scene be? How far is *too* far? The answer to that, and many other questions, served to you with a complementary side of my usual silliness~

Bolegda meta is too strong.

Have you ever wondered if Max & friends are secretly terrible people? Well, wonder no more! Let us show you how awful we truly are with the help of the most rotten game in the history of mankind. Today I’m joined by Plaguesworth & LadyKittyLynn, and our mission is simple, rise above the ranks of awfulness all thanks to: Cards Against Humanity!

In today’s writing advice video, I talk about being put in a situation where you have to add on to your book’s word-count. That’s right, we’re talking about filler again, but this time there’s a catch. We’re gonna talk about how to write filler, the *right* way.

Fine-tuning our stealth skillz.

Welcome back to Max Plays! This time around I’m playing through the Metal Gear game everyone forgot existed— no, I’m not talking about Ghost Babel. It’s Metal Gear Acid, a crazy twist on a crazy franchise. Turn-based stealth tactics AND a collectable card game? I must’ve died and gone to Outer Heaven!

BLESSED BE THY REMIXERS. I have been dying to talk about this awesome new remix album by the awesome peeps at Overclocked ReMix. If you’ve been following my channel for a while you know I love their mixes— and that I believe they belong in every writer’s musical library.
