After fighting a 5 DAY migraine/headache/whatever-it-was , I was able to do some research on epistolary writing. (Excuse my crappy handwriting as usual, please) I found a great podcast on epistolary literature from BBC Podcasts on YouTube. It was really interesting hearing four professors just break down the history, development, and impact of the epistolary writing style. Not only did their riveting discussion help with my analysis of Stoker’s Dracula, which I hope to publish soon, but it also gave me some crazy ideas for my novel series. I don’t think epistolary writing and it’s “reality entertainment” essence ever really died. They mentioned emails in the podcasts, but...man have you seen YouTube drama crap? What’s one of the first things you see pop up? Comments on vlogs, twitter posts, snapshots of DMs. #EpistolaryIsNotDead ✍️📖 #novelwriting #research #literature #literaturestudies #articlewriting #writer #author #dracula #bbc #bbcpodcast #epistolarynovel #youtubedrama https://www.instagram.com/p/ByY_5JOHTJ7/?igshid=1uwgrcxhnudim
