"You want to (write dark themes) in a way that's sensitive and include the dark content but also consider the impact." Sarah Hawley, USA Today Bestselling Author, writes dark fantasy worldbuilding that makes rebellion feel inevitable and magic feel consequential, a drastic shift from her lighter rom-coms. Focusing on her high fantasy series, we discuss creating believable rebellion arcs, designing a dark narrative that shapes story stakes, and techniques for deepening character motivation, along with themes of escapism, rebellion, and fighting for a better world even when the odds are against you.Connect with Sarah:https://www.sarahhawleyauthor.com/Instagram: @mssarahhawleyTwitter: @MsSarahHawleyCheck out "Servant of Earth" by Sarah Hawley, the first book in The Shards of Magic Series:https://amzn.to/3GE7RRW---------The YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPcGXevs2NQk3Ab9OD66zuQSupport the Showhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/romancethestoryFind me below:Twitter - @RomancetheStoryInstagram - @RomancetheStoryFacebook - @RomancetheStory Music:Strawberry Flavor Love by Daystarhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMi0dxVgqvo Support the show
