I am writing my first novel in which I want to cover the theme of human nature as opposed to that of animals: aggression, curiosity, boredom... I hadn't planned it from the start though, it just came to me as alongside a newly-sparked interested in psychology in the course of my first writing. I was wondering...
Do you guys usually aim for a specific psychological, sociological or psychological theme or whatever comes to mind in the course of writing?
How overt do you leave them be? In the form of some heavy exposition or hidden in some deep symbology?
Which themes have you covered so far in your previous work and why?
And how important do you think they are for sf/f novels?
