@graciegirl Covert spy operations in the world of literature and theme are the best operations to have. 😉 I know exactly what you mean by that!

@sleepwalkingmk I think your revision of #1 works well and drives at what I was looking for. The character’s complete obedience to her parents is part of her personality, but stems from more issues than just the theme, which is why I don’t think it’s part of the answer to your FQ.

Also I’m a huge fan of #3. It’s a very sympathetic answer that I…[Read more]

Cya.

@DaughteroftheKing Okiday. Thx for writing! Adios! 🙂

@DaughteroftheKing Okiday. Adios! 🙂

@Daeus lol, welcome aboard!

@DaughteroftheKing Oh, dear. What a dilemma. XD

@Dragon-Snapper Ah, si. No worries. 😛

@gracie-girl Lo siento. I have to practice guitar. 🙂

@DaughteroftheKing *collapses with relief* Oh, thank you for joining! 😀
Yes, I have some Theme Mastery Homework I need to get done. You?

@that_writer_girl_99 @Dragon-Snapper @audrey-caylin @Daeus @Winter-Rose @DaughteroftheKing @jess @Ethryndal Necesito accountability mis amigos! I’m procrastinating away some perfect writing time, please help!

Oops. I forgot to answer this. 😛
Theme excites me for pretty much the same reasons it excites everyone else in this thread. I never thought I would be able to add Christian messages into my writing without triggering a reader’s defenses. But this course has me thinking that I just might be able to sneak behind the lines and deliver a powerful…[Read more]

@aratrea Awesome! I noticed that each of the answers had elements of truth to them but I wasn’t sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing. I must say I’m very relieved. 😀
To the next lesson I go! 😉

@Mark-Kamibaya lol that’s absolutely hilarious.

@graciegirl As long as it isn’t the full name of any famous person (whether living or deceased), overly abstract or silly, a penname is fine. 🙂

@bethanysinkyroses Yes–that would be fine! Ideally we’ll have people from all over the spectrum–some who have been here for a while and some who have joined recently, so that would be no problem.

@bethanysinkyroses Thanks for that conference recommendation! As Michael mentioned, we’ll need to talk as a team about how much of an investment it’s worth to attend these conferences, but I’d definitely love to attend more of them if we can make them financially feasible for us. I’ll add that convention to our list of potential conferences next year.

@sleepwalkingmk Good set of answers there. I might slightly alter the “family/parents” answer to focus more on the value of family than an un-nuanced approach to obedience, though. Whether you choose to always obey your parents or not seems to be a different issue than if you view them as the most important thing in your life.

How would you…[Read more]

@Aratrea Ah, yes. I see what you mean. I have an explanation for both of those questions, but…I had a crazy idea this past week that came from a conversation I wrote between my protagonist and her mom. It let me see a few things about her that make me think that I’ve been looking at my theme all wrong.
What do you think of this?

Theme:…[Read more]
