Anyone still writing? @winter-rose @dragon-snapper

@winter-rose Alrighty! I might have to go in a few minutes, but I’ll see what we can get done. 😀

@northerner @winter-rose @bluejay @ethryndal @perfectfifths @jess @daeus @kate-flournoy @overcomer
I’m going to be doing some more brainstorming/worldbuilding/allthethings if anyone wants to join me.

@audrey-caylin Awesome! Glad to hear that the lesson sparked some creative juices! 😀 I haven’t read A Time to Die yet (it is so high on my reading list, but time keeps alluding me…), but that seems like a good analysis of the book. The message doesn’t seem too broad to me (though to be fair I haven’t read the book yet), but it could be a bit…[Read more]

@ethryndal Awesome; those are great goals to have! Explaining how all story aspects can tie into a story’s theme was one of the goals I had in making the course, so it should definitely help you learn how to do that.

@sleepwalkingmk You’re welcome! If we weren’t trying to constantly outdo ourselves, us Jedi masters may be out of a job pretty quickly. 😉

@dragon-snapper Great goal! Like Daeus said, we’ll definitely be answering that and unpacking how to approach a theme from several different angles by using the power of story.

@audrey-caylin That’s great! Writing about things you’ve experienced can create the most powerful themes in storytelling, so that’s a great place to start, and I’ll be talking some in the next video about that aspect of theme development.

@ethryndal Glad to have you on board. 😀 Essentially what we’ll be doing for the final version is going through the course and updating all the lessons with the polished videos. So you will have full access to the polished version once it’s completed.

Ah, the brainstorming stage. *sighs happily* That may just be my favorite. Of course, I hardly ever venture past it, so, that’s probably good. 😉 @dragon-snapper 🙂

Alright, guys, I’m done! I finished up some more (seriously belated beyond all redemption 😉 ) feedback for @bluejay and sent it to her. How did you guys do on your projects? @winter-rose @dragon-snapper @northerner

*confetti falls from cotton-candy colored rain-clouds*

BIG party! @winter-rose @dragon-snapper @northerner ! 😀 Awesome! 🙂

@overcomer @northerner @winter-rose Okay, I’m back and ready to write/plan. 😛

Congratulations, @dragon-snapper ! 🙂 I’m going to work for at least 30 minutes longer. You’re welcome to join me, Yankee. 😉 @northerner

@overcomer Huzzah! We have won! I finally found out which story I’m going to write next along with the theme course. Thanks for writing!

@Daeus those changes seriously helped it look more historical fictiony. It’s great.
I like the second one better, with the gleam on the words.
I think it might look better though if the gold was a little darker, whether you put it for the title or the subtitle, or with or without a gleam. It looks pretty similar to the silver.

Yay, @dragon-snapper ! Let us fight together! 😉

@overcomer I will be with you for unknown amount of time. Might have to leave in a few minutes, but I’ll see if I can be productive. 😛

I’ll be writing for 45 minutes if anyone wants to join. 🙂 @dragon-snapper , @daeus , @winter-rose , @anyoneatall
