FOR WRITERS: Getting to the End

The End - pixabay

FOR WRITERS Today’s writer topic comes from QSFer Denise Dechene: I’ve seen some authors say that they knew the ending of their stories before anything else. What is your method. Do you have the ending and have to go back to begin it or do you have the middle and have to work out how they got there then where they are going? Editor’s comment: the classic pantser vs. plotter debate. :P Join the chat

FOR AUTHORS: Intentional Symbolism?

FOR WRITERS Today’s writer topic comes from QSFer Isaac Walker-Tye: I’ve always sat in literature classes and wondered if these authors that are studied actually intended to put messages and symbolism in their works, or if we’re just seeing patterns where there are none. What do you aim to do with your writing? Do you write to make something purely enjoyable with no underlining complexity, or do you try to include messages (be it moral, political, religious or so forth)? Join the chat
