I get asked for writing advice all the time. Usually I try to explain my total ignorance of how I manage to carry this off. But when my niece asked me I cracked and recorded this video. It’s all the wisdom I have. If it’s not helpful to you I do apologise. But it is seriously the structure I use myself.
