Welcome to Gaia! ::

It is fine to make mistakes in class. That is what class is for. It is actually better that you make honest mistakes so that you can learn from them. You don't learn from perfection, you learn from experience. Part of gaining experience is making mistakes.

Again, you will want to be sure that you specificaly emphasize the subject of your theme. As writers generally do not write their own themes, but rather pick from commonly used themes, it is not essential that you know how to write a theme. The point of this exercise is to help you to get a better understanding of what a theme is.

So before we get into plot structure, we will be studying commonly used themes and styles associated with those themes.

So if you would like to give it another try to see if you can improve your themes, you may find that helpful. However, if you feel you understand what a subject and slant are, but putting it into words is another story, you need not fret and you can wait till the next lesson to learn more.
