I think the right theme would emerge once you have a general idea of the characters and how the plot should go. For a short story, perhaps you might want to avoid some of the bigger themes which would require an entire novel to do justice (pun intended).

Since your story is to be a mystery/thriller, one idea that came to me is to…[Read more]

Oh yes I love it when the antagonist and protagonist mirror each other thematically.

I like unexpected villains (e.g. killer being a child or sweet old lady). I’m also fascinated by villains that have unique and interesting motivations because the power-hungry, petty-jealous-rivalry, s…[Read more]

Done! I got 412 words done on a fantasy novella/novel I’m writing. Thanks for the sprint, @lydia-s!

Hey, thanks for the sprint! Definitely not five hours, but maybe 3o minutes. See ya around! Oh, and it’s almost 1:45 my time.

Yeah, I was able to see it. I just offered my suggestions in comment form instead of on the document itself 🙂

Correct me if I’m wrong.

art thou a dude?

@morgan

That’s true:)
Oh yes, I definitely! Animals and nature are my favorites too, (I mean, I do enjoy abstract and planned scenes, but animals are at the top of the list!) Aww, you have chickens? That’s awesome! That’s one of them in your Profile Portrait, right? I agree, they are amazing to photograph:)

@faith-q

Hi Faith! Sorry, I’m so late in welcoming you to Kingdom Pen, but Welcome!! 😀 *High fives for homeschoolers and chocolate!* Wow, seven siblings? Never really a chance to get bored then huh? I have two, and I never really get the chance, (boredom has strangely become a privilege of sorts for me XD ). But I think that that is spectacular…[Read more]
