Okay… in my last post I laid out an argument that theme is often misrepresented. I then put forth a definition for what theme is, defining it by the plot, characters, their arcs, and the intricate patterns of the character interactions in a world.

But halfway through writing t…[Read more]

@msqueen8 thanks, that’s great advice! I’ve prayed for it generally, but never before anticipated conversations. That’s a really good idea.

@piperbee first of all, welcome to New Wessex! I don’t believe we’ve officially met. 😉 And yes, that’s definitely another big one. It can be hard to realize God can use you just as you are, before you’ve…[Read more]

Is this word war still going or did it end already? 😝 Sorry, I’ve been so out of it lately.

@daeus-lamb

🙂 Thanks for this post, it’s a good reminder. Although since I don’t live alone, I’m subconsciously being held to a standard that keeps me responsible for my other duties aside from writing. Keeps me balanced, things would be a little different if  I lived alone. 🙂

But actually right now my biggest struggle to be healthy has…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb

Ahhhh… yes. A respectable question indeed. And one that I believe was (at least partly) in response to things I have said before. So first, please know that I write this with a smile upon my face.

@daeus-lamb ahhhhhhhh, yes. I needed that.

@daeus-lamb

@jane-maree @e-b-raulands @kari-karast @josiah @daeus-lamb

Thanks all! I’ll look into those soon.

@evelyn Yep, that’s all I could think of too. xD I’m kind of surprised this sort of setting isn’t more common, but I guess it’s not the most natural place for conflict. It’s perfect for my story’s themes though.

Nice job, everyone! And especially @daeus-lamb. 🙂 also, I agree, @r-m-archer. Powerful line.

@kate

Exactly! Great work everybody!😊 Thanks for writing @daeus-lamb.

@daeus-lamb

Wonderful! Thx.

Thank you so much for the list! She actually does have a soft side, and becomes a healer eventually(well, she’s still a warrior with impressive swordsmanship as well, but she becomes a healer to help her friends and new-found family since they all have a stubborn mentality when it comes to taking care of themselves…. let’s…[Read more]

@daeus-lamb For me it’s something I wouldn’t dare to do. But I agree with you on the scripture point. If we were to write God in a story we have to stay close to His word. 😊

@ericawordsmith I guess that’s why I felt a little stuck writing fantasy. I still enjoy the genre! And The Chronicles of Narnia will ever remain one of my favorite book serie…[Read more]
