    We made it to week ten! Yay! *throws glitter*

    I didn’t have anything planned for this week, so I thought I’d share a quote that struck me as I was reading.

    “When readers feel strongly, their hearts are open. Your stories can not only reach them for a moment, but they can change them forever.” -Donald Mass

    This quote reaffirms the importance of involving feelings and emotion in stories. Emotions can tear down walls and reach places that arguments and preachy messages could never tread. Theme can deeply move readers because they don’t simply know the story’s truth in their minds. They can practically feel it.

    Coolness, right?
