I second that!
As a fellow writing student, "that's something I wrote, I hope you don't hate it" is possibly the most relatable feeling! Also, I thought it was great 😄
Ok time to live my life vicariously through Jack Edwards for 24:01
The dialogue is brilliant. Your puns, a close second.
seeing jack work so hard for his dream life and also be so carefree about life at the same time is so motivating, assuring that everything is going to be okay and he is just so wholesome☺🥺 P.S Jack we are waiting for your book(No pressure tho but like the anticipation is killing me)👀
4:33 It's true that I will take every opportunity to fangirl about Schitt's Creek, but that show is genuinely a MASTERCLASS is dialogue writing. Each character comes with their own personal dictionaries, vocabularies and speak in such a unique style all throughout the six seasons. I love the show as audience, but their special about how they made it was also soo interesting, as they talked about the process of writing the show, building each character from their backstory to their wardrobe and then writing each individual episode and arcs

yeah ive never watched a show that has such natural, realistic diaouge it feels so representive of real life
Quote of the Day: “You know how some people say their body is like a temple. Mine is like a dilapidated old garden shed.”
Seeing Jack being so happy with his Valentino jacket and gifts made me smile.
It's so lovely seeing your slice-of-life vlogs! I moved from England to Asia around the same time that you moved to America, so it's been nice to see your explorations and it inspires me to record my time living abroad too. Thanks for another fab video, Jack! Glad to see you're enjoying New York!!
Does anyone else also want Jack's job sm😭

Same, it'd be my dream job but I don't think I'm creative enough, so even just being a beta reader or an editor would be immaculate
Is no one gonna mention the fact that this video is an ad for VALENTINO?????? Get that bag Jack omg!!!!
Thanks so much for showing so much of NYC. Lived there in my youth 1980's and it was a very special time. I attended both the New School and NYU for writing and worked in journalism for most of those years. I still make it back several times a year and it never gets old, though covid took some of its might away and I know NYC and it will recover. Loved the glimpse of your life.
What a great video! I’m way out of your demographic, but I’ve followed you since you were in Uni and seen you grow and change. I’m so envious of this new chapter in NYC. What energy and excitement!
Jack is SLAYING with the Halloween Costume 👏🏽
please, drop more content about your writing classes! we’d love to see your progress ❤
your lil writing bit with the dialogue caught me by such surprise, and it gave me chills
wow wow wow the VIBES in this vid! Jack you are thriving and we LOVE to see it!!
jack that dialogue was really good like REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD !!!

I never call it a jumper. Who calls it that these days?
the horror books coming in that cool box where every drawer is a book is so dope, had never seen that before. also yes jack flexing with the valentino sponsor and yes with fashion and literature collaboration!
that was the perfect treat during a Sunday morning, thank you Jack for sharing all these good vibes, I've never seen NY as a city I would enjoy (Italian from Milan, living in Paris) but this vlog changed the way I look at it now. Glad you're living it to the fullest!
Jack writing a novel is such an exciting thing. If you ever publish it I’ll order it as fast as I can.
Jack is living the dream aha, it’s amazing that you get to do what you love for a living!!! :D Also guys, the 📚Book Club📚 is reading Jane Eyre for November! It’s a community dedicated to just Jack’s viewers :) and there’s nearly 1,900 of us! (details in replies if you want to join!)

I can’t tell you how proud I feel to see you grow, travel a thriving in your elements. It’s both generous and inspiring that you share your success with us, so thank you.
Does anyone else ever feel like when you watch these types of videos, you’re watching your friend grow? Jack, I feel like your videos have become so much more than what drew me to your account in the beginning, book recs. Your videos have been my happy escape during darker times. I think it helps that we are close (ish) in age and learning some of the same valuable life lessons, but you are now the comfort of an old friend and I love to see you thriving. You have earned all of this and I hope your exciting ventures remain plentiful. Thank you 💙
You’ve come so far and it is truly inspiring to see
hi jack! you're living my dream (i did tv writing and prose writing at undergraduate level but would love to take it to a masters level). tv writing is so much fun! dialogue is key, but once you've got that nailed it's honestly so lovely to write. sometimes when writing my short stories, i would use tv writing to plan out how i wanted the scene to go and then add prose in, in place of stage directions. i used to have workshops where "the writer was dead" like yours - where you can't explain your process to others critiquing. it was always so fun reading other people's scripts and giving feedback, but so nerve-wracking when your own work was critiqued. however, once you get to know the people on your course quite well, it's always a lovely experience and you can feel everyone growing and progressing throughout. always such a fun process, i miss it so much. let's hope we are both successful in the creative writing world
I’m so happy for Jack enjoying his life🎉
Jack, you're amazing, keep it up!
Absolutely love living vicariously through you as you radiate main character energy in nyc💜
I loved your little dialogue! Now I can’t wait to read your novel 😍❤️❤️
Thanks so much for taking us into your own NYC life Jack 😊
Omg the vibe of this video is everything 🥺
Daaaamn i can’t help but to think back on a couple of years ago when i first started watching your videoes. Back then, you were getting sponsored by SHEIN, and now it’s Valentino!! So cool, you have gotten so far, congratulations! You deserve it all🥳
all the vibes in this video 💕💕💕
Jacks dialog reminded me of a really lovely movie staring Sarah Paulson and Mark Duplass called Blue Jay. Its about 2 high school sweethearts who's paths cross again years later and both their lives are in totally different places. Would defo recommend a watch :D
I've been binge watching your videos for hours now since I discovered it. Totally in love with every single one I've watched! Thank you for making them❤❤❤
loved your dialogue piece!
love love LOVE seeing Jack thrive like this, you deserve every good thing you're feeling. much love
I can't wait for 5yrs to pass by and to be able to witness the growth and success Jack will reach. I never get tired of hearing about his adventures!
Loved this vlog, keep ‘em coming!
It's so nice and it feels so warm to see Jack so genuinely excited about the life he lives! No pretense here, and I'm living for it! 🥺
Congrats on this amazing collab!! Your channel honestly just lights my day up Jack, thank you! 😊
Yes giovanni's room :))) im ignoring the outpour of emotions but definitely one of the best
We NEED more vlogs from Jack!!!
Just now bumped on your videos and subscribed to your channel and I ohsolove you! I'm from India. Obsessive reader, Literature PostGrad. You're so full of positive, lively vibes and your book reviews and discussions are not only sharp and precise but what's amazing is how clear-headed you are about your thoughts and what you speak(say about how men avoid Romance genre or why you think it necessary to shout out under-represented niches like Black romance Etc). You're awesome! And super cute too! I so wish you were in India! I'd sure have loved to go out with you. All my warm love and good wishes to you boy!
Absolutely incredible! Super proud of you, Jacky, look at all that you’ve achieved and all that is yet to come. Continue shining! ❤️
Amazing thanks. You're one of my favorite BookTubers. I love you.
Loved your dialogue. So intriguing. Cannot wait for your book!
I'm about to graduate from my creative writing course and i'm so glad you're doing it! it's been such an amazing experience and i've met some of the absolute best writers and people. our last assessment was pretty similar with the outline/full screenplay and let me just tell you it is so hard but SO SO rewarding! good luck!!!!
So excited for the novel ✨✨✨
Watching you and your channel blossom so beautifully has been a KZread highlight for me. Valentino baby! 🎊🙌💃
Your writing is amazing. I need to read your book right now!
absolutely dreamy, I was in awe with your dialogue, can't wait to read your book 💌
Loved the little goldfish dialogue!

I just have to say, your willingness and ability to travel the world chasing what you love is so admirable. I would LOVE to experience little bits of life in different places, but often I simply do not have the nerve to confidently go and DO it. I hope you are able to continue as long as you want to travel! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us!
I’m actually so proud and happy for you 😭 ❤
Jack you’re living my dream and I’m so proud of you,so proud of how much you’ve grown and makes me happy to see you happy,bless you loads 💜
