Theme of the Month: October

Hey y'all,

I don't think we've decided on a theme for this month.  Any suggestions?

We could do the one we talked about earlier, at the POW conference: introducing characters.  Whether to do it all at once with a paragraph for each at the beginning or to do it gradually or any other way.  (Are there really any other ways of introducing characters?)  These pieces could be really any genre.  Though it would be a bit challenging in poetry...

How do you feel about that?  Any other themes you'd rather do?

  1. Inspiration? People who you believed you inspired or people who inspire you. It may help the juices flow

  2. Both of those ideas sound good to me. I like the characters one because it gives me a chance to see what y'all have been writing. (To steal a phrase from Allya.)

    But inspiration is good too. We could do both. Sorry, I know that's not really helpful.

  3. How about we choose one theme for this month, and another for next month? That way we don't have to keep coming up with themes and running out of ideas.

    Since it's October, and it's Halloween, how about we do 'introducing characters'? And since next month is November (the month of America's Thanksgiving), we'll do inspiration.
