So for all you writers out there, there's a poll to the right on topics for the Explain That series on the Cherry Forums. I asked over there and the schedule so far, per request is:
January: Headhopping
February: Openings, plus a special Valentine's Day GHH post*
March: Motif, Symbol and Metaphor
April: Theme
That leaves us with eight months to schedule and the following 12 topics to choose from:
Antagonists
Beats
Bookending
Conflict
Foreshadowing
Infodump/The Exposition Fairy/Author Intrusion
MacGuffins
Pacing/Turning Points
Prologues and Epilogues
Show Don't Tell
Time Shifts
Tone
Poll is to the right of the blog. Vote for top four, please. Thank you.
*My mistake. That's Trope of the Month, not ETA.
