To convey a theme effectively, use symbolism, motifs, and recurring imagery to reinforce the message. Develop strong, relatable characters that embody the theme through their actions and choices, and ensure the plot and setting support the theme consistently throughout the story. Lastly, use dialogue and narration to explicitly discuss or explore the theme, allowing readers to engage with the underlying message.
