Another \Note on Theme

Just another note about the theme, Was writing today and got 5 pages in. I feel this was a eureka moment for me cause I was stuck on trying to get the premise right by writing and rewriting one sentence. The theme is important as I feel it the center of any story. Having researched ways in improving my script, the one thing that helped was settling on the theme. I, however, was not able to come you with the sentence expressing it usually the subject and the verb together which was more tricky. Family is...... The consequences of no love in a family are...... it cant be never turned your back on the family because Yawo turns his back on the Fagan character at the end so its can't be that. I just settled on the theme of the family because I got 48 hours to worky'all.

Karl Iglesias, says that knowing what the story is about, the whole story will be a reflection of what you are trying to say, the theme the meaning of the story. 

Paddy Chayefsky had a quote saying “lucky is the writer who knows his theme from the beginning”, cause once you understand that, your characters scenes and story will be a reflection of that theme from character arc to scene confrontations and debate. I also wrote this cause its the end of the day and do not have enough time to write about my athletics training.
