How to Write Fiction: Working with a Theme in your fiction and characters!
Most writers at one point in their lives struggle with theme. What is theme? How do I incorporate it into my story? How do I tie that in with my characters in actions and thought? How do I make sure my point comes across? Can I show different parts of the theme without seeming incoherent?
In today's episode Author and Fiction Teacher Holly Lisle and I (host, Rebecca Galardo) cover all of this with an example that Holly comes up with and builds upon live.
