<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">I know I said I would not be putting out a post this week because it&rsquo;s a holiday weekend and my birthday, and I&rsquo;m on a hiatus, but I feel the need to write this.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">I, very recently (yesterday, in fact), had a very long conversation with a friend of mine about writing. She is in a graduate program and just received some troubling news about her thesis following a paper review that left her in a state of devastation. Having been in that situation before, I was there to lend a shoulder, pass some tissues, and give some advice.



<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">My advice to her, as I will now share with you all, is to watch the video embedded below titled &ldquo;The Craft of Writing Effectively&rdquo; from the University of Chicago&rsquo;s Social Sciences YouTube Channel.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">As many of you reading this blog are also content creators (this is a blogging platform, after all), I realized that this video more than qualifies to be featured as a recommended watch here at TheAnimeView.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">For some context, this video is about writing in general, albeit focused on writing in academia. It&rsquo;s how I came across the video in the first place&ndash;way back when I was an undergrad and looking for advice to improve my papers. In watching it, I can confidently say that it changed how I wrote papers entirely. I took the advice given, implemented it, and found immediate improvement. It&rsquo;s not on formatting, grammar, or the structure of a good essay&ndash;it&rsquo;s on the content of writing in general, whether it be in an essay or an article, or even a blog post.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">As an editor, I&rsquo;ve referred many clients to this video as they write proposals for books. As a Teaching Assistant (and now as an Embedded Tutor), I&rsquo;ve referred it to colleagues and referenced it in lectures. I&rsquo;ve sent it to friends and insist that of the hundreds of books, articles, and videos I&rsquo;ve consumed on the topic of writing (pay in mind I have degrees in literature and creative writing, as well as a certification in publishing), this is the best video for rethinking how you need to focus your content to create anything for an audience.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">The video is about an hour and a half long. While it&rsquo;s not very high energy, it is incredibly interesting for anyone aspiring to become, or who already is, a content creator or academic.

<p style="margin-bottom: 15px; color: #333333; font-family: Inter, sans-serif; font-size: medium; background-color: #f8f8f8;">With that said, I wish you all well. See you again when I return from my hiatus (or, you know, if I get the urge to write something along the way like just now).
