WRITING FOR EMOTIONAL IMPACT by Karl Iglesias - Chapter 3, Part 1
Concepts that Sell - Like Miles Morales as Spider-Man - But Why?
On today's episode:
We dig deeper into Karl Iglesias's book, WRITING FOR EMOTIONAL IMPACT. Using Karl's thoughts as a jumping off point, we discuss the techniques writers use to elicit emotions, and the importance of emotion in storytelling.
This week, it's all about how to "punch up" concepts to make them: (1) more uniquely familiar, and (2) promise more conflict!
