    An active soul is a healthy soul

    Kia ora. This week we are going to continue looking at the elements of fantasy writing.  The goal is to craete a backdrop or template for each element so that when it is time to write your own fantasy story you already will have all the building blocks you will need to build your cstle (a bit of a mixed metaphor but we will see what happens).  This week we are going to focus on setting andcharacter.  Remember setting is both place and time and differs from location.
