Joy started the topic Questions about Motifs and Archetypes in the forum Plotting 6 years, 10 months ago
Greetings, my fellow Kapeefers! I have two questions:
- What exactly is a motif? And what is the difference between a motif and a theme or symbol?
- What is the difference between a symbol and an archetype?

@that_writer_girl_99 Haha, Good, because I just realized I binge-read quite often. I’ll take an old series of 3-10 books off the shelf and lie down and re-read them till 3:00 am. 😀
So if it’s a thing…other people do that too?

Hi friends,
Most of you probably know about my show don’t tell course. The exciting news is that I’m going to be releasing part 2 of that course any day now.
Anyway, I had to rebuild my sales page to accommodate for the now 2 part course. I think I managed to keep it looking fairly good, but there are probably some things I could do to improve…[Read more]

@that_writer_girl_99 Haha, please don’t faint on my account.
@mnvalentine Yes, those audio dramas are some of my favorite. I think I own all of their radio theater. I have read the Lunar Chronicles. They are fun. But I read them before Winter came out so I never read that one, sadly. Yessss, Jim Dale is the best reader.

Rochellaine replied to the topic Be in Our Newsletter!! in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 10 months ago
@that_writer_girl_99 I finally came up with something. 🙂
I think science fiction worldbuilding shouldn’t be as complicated as a lot of us try to make it. When writing science fiction, wouldn’t it be simpler to pick one specific scientific interest which is the basis for your story, and then have the rest of the story be more normal? That would…[Read more]

Sam Kowal replied to the topic Want to read about theme in the forum General Writing Discussions 6 years, 10 months ago
@daeus 😀 That is a great article. The biggest difficulty with it, I have to agree with @that_writer_girl_99, is that it contains ‘writerly terms’ that the average reader wouldn’t understand. However, I don’t think that’s necessarily a problem; if you’re submitting it to a writing blog, there’s probably already an audience built up there used to w…[Read more]

I created this topic to share all the funny and weird things that has happened to us being writers. Here’s a couple of my experiences….
I daydream while my mom and another mom-friend talk about their kids’ interests. I’m really not part of the conversation until my mom says, “My daughter writes books.”
Mom-Friend turns to me. “Oh really?…[Read more]
