I used to start all my new stories based on a scene, character, or idea that popped into my head. But it took forever to figure out a plot or develop my characters. Today, I'm teaching you how to take your idea and turn it into a story premise that can give your novel focus and direction.
Find a story premise so you don't get stuck wondering what happens next in your story. A strong story idea can help you know how to develop characters and how to plot a novel.

I use the terms premise and theme pretty much interchangeably. And I guess what you refer to as theme might what I would call the leitmotif or simply motif.

@OnWriting. Месяц назад

Yeah, probably closer to leitmotif, tbh. Motif always seemed closer to "symbol" to me. So many of these terms are used interchangeably, for sure

Great delineation between premise and theme! And at the end of the day it’s all about the MC - not plot!!!

@OnWriting. Месяц назад

Thank you!! And yes, for sure ^.^ plot matters, but characters are the heartbeat of the story

THANKS FOR THIS. I'm writing a biblical historical novel. Im working on my premise and I think it's expressed by a minor but influential character, who says, "I could not have imagined how sweet the bitterness of the Lord could taste." The story is about two main characters who lose everything and go through hell, but together they discover they've served a higher purpose and through that find ultimate peace and contentment.
