Okay, so what I’m gonna tell you is what I’d personally advise people who don’t know plotting. It’s not anything professional just my personal opinion.

@kate-flournoy I just think it’s hilarious how you were like “Plotting! Oh, yeah. There’s that guy who can’t shut up about plot. Lemme tag ‘im.”
Anyways . . .
@BethanySinkyRoses The Weiland books will basically have you covered (The Structure one is better than the Outlining one). I’d also suggest getting these two books by James Scott Bell: Plo…[Read more]

Sci-Fi Tips Part 12
The robot is prevalent throughout sci-fi. Because of its popularity the robot has generally fallen into two character types: the Robot Who Wants To Be Human and the Bumbling Robot. One convention I hate. The other one I tolerate (don’t necessarily love it). Read carefully and decide for yourself whether or not my hate and…[Read more]

Josiah DeGraaf replied to the topic Homework for Video 3: Discovering & Deepening Theme in the forum Writing Assignments 9 years, 2 months ago
@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.
