Whatever genre your story is in, you should include foreshadowing because it builds that tension and suspense that keeps readers turning the pages. There are tons of ways you can work foreshadowing into your story, but for today, we're going to focus on three, along with a quick creative writing exercise you can do for practice.

Stuff I use as a full time writer/author (that you may have spotted in this video!) (affiliate links are afoot):

WRITING/WORK STUFF
Alphasmart Neo2. Highly highly recommend. [ Ссылка ]
Adjustable laptop desk. I LOVE this thing. Typing with my arms at an angle has drastically reduced elbow/wrist pain. [ Ссылка ]
Clever Fox planner. I’ve used a few planners and this is my fav. Lots of space for mind-mapping and brainstorming, daily to-do lists, space for goal setting. [ Ссылка ]
Best writing pens, hands down. I use them every time I revise a book. [ Ссылка ]
Acer monitor. I kind of hate the word gamechanger but this really was that kind of purchase. [ Ссылка ]
Brother laser printer. I won’t lie, this thing is a behemoth. But I’ve had it since 2017 and I think I’ve had maybe one paper jam? It works great, it’s super consistent, A++ for printing manuscripts. [ Ссылка ]
Macbook Air. Doesn’t really need my recommendation. [ Ссылка ]

I'm a Skillshare Ambassador! I've been binging their courses on filmmaking and video editing, as well as writing, but there's all kinds of stuff for creative types! Try it out FREE for two week! [ Ссылка ]

COFFEE STUFF
Ninja coffee maker. [ Ссылка ]
Cold brew pitcher. [ Ссылка ]
Zulay milk frother. [ Ссылка ]

VIDEO MAKING STUFF
Canon G7X Mark iii camera. [ Ссылка ]
Savage studio lights. I mostly use these for ‘talking head’ videos. [ Ссылка ]
Ubeesize 10” ring light. That’s the little guy sitting on my desk. I mostly use it for vlogging. [ Ссылка ]
JJC mini tripod. [ Ссылка ]
Rode clip mic. [ Ссылка ]

BLACK LIVES MATTER. To my fellow white authors: we have to show up every day. We have to speak out. We have to make it clear to the Black authors and creators in our community that we are here for them. Silence is not an option. Please check out this Google Doc for hundreds of resources on how you can support, donate, and learn--not just in February, not just when another senseless tragedy due to racism occurs, but every single day from right now moving forward: [ Ссылка ]
