(There is no reason not to have a plot line. Just establish a goal and have character move toward it, putting obstacles, characters, or situations in the way for the character to overcome on the way to that goal. The characters and setting are morphed and adjusted by each writer's post. Theme is more tricky if not impossible. But maybe the exercise will uncover one. BTW Amos, I was not as calculating as I may seem from my previous post. My thought process was, "now that he is out, what is the most fun thing to do with him. Twice that answer was , put him back in. Also I could not resist the pun with the football player's name. )
