Which comes first: the characters or the plot?

Juliet Burns - Frequently Asked Questions.
Hmmm... That's a hard one for me. I guess I'd have to say plot. I've learned I tend to be plot driven. But I have had a couple of really strong characters that came on the page and took over. I'd be perfectly happy writing series romance the rest of my days. I tend to write short. But I think I'll take this writing career thing one day at a time! For more information on how to get started writing and the things I think are important to help you get published, see my Writing Tips page.

Are the characters and plot in Explicit Content based on real people and events?

BLACK ARTEMIS
You have my word that, with except for the obviously famous names and places I mention to give the novel its realistic flavor, Explicit Content is a complete work of fiction. But let's face it. The way some hip hop artists and labels conduct business, something like what goes down in Explicit Content is very possible. Did you write those rhymes that appear in the Explicit Content? Yes, I must take all criticism and praise for them.

Do you plot?

Anne Mallory Romance Author & FAQ
I do a mishmash of plotting and diving in to the story. I need to know the bare layout of where I’m going and I usually have a vision of the resolution scene. The joy and torture is in laying everything in between. I do work with an outline that I create from the synopsis I turn into my editor, and I paste in juicy future tidbits as they come to me.

But where's the plot?

Stockhausen Discussion Page - by Robin Maconie
Ask yourself what is the plot of the Bach St Matthew Passion. It's about a visionary and a good person who is arrested as a subversive, tried, and brutally executed, but who miraculously doesn't die. The sub-text is that the human dimension is only the packaging, and what matters is the quality, and the quality has its own life and survives and is transferred to other people. The old image of enlightenment is of tongues of flame and haloes.

When you begin a new novel, which comes to you first, the characters or the situation?

Bestselling Romance Novelist, Jennifer Blake : FAQ
It depends on the story. With ROYAL SEDUCTION, one of my most famous books, it was the character of the hero, a prince who comes to the United States in the 1820s. With GARDEN OF SCANDAL, it was the heroine, a woman with agoraphobia (fear of leaving a closed-in, safe place) who is trapped in her house by old malice as well as old fears-until a handsome younger man, a gardener, arrives to help set the "Sleeping Beauty" free.

Nobody comes to meetings. What can we do?

City & Village Tax Office ~~
Unfortunately, this is one of the most common complaints we hear. When a subdivision is new or just handed over to the residents, interest will be very high and people will be involved. As a few years go by, the only people at the meetings will be the trustees and a handful of residents. In one respect, it's a tribute to a job well done by the trustees. The homeowners are happy and they don't reason to pay attention. Everything's being handled well.

What is the difference between a graph and a plot?

FAQ 5
Each plot represents a single "series" of data. All but the most simple graphs in STATISTICA contain more than one plot of data. In other words, in STATISTICA, the term graph applies to a complete graphical representation of (one or more) "series" of data, that is, to the entire "picture," which can be saved as a graphics document (by default, as a STATISTICA graphics file, file name extension *.stg).

If and only if you are taking good care of your original senshi, you may add up to two of the following - Villain, Chibi or Knight - for a maximum of three "transforming" characters. The only possible combinations of transforming characters allowed is senshi/chibi/villain, senshi/chibi/knight or senshi/villain/knight. (And no, there aren't any exceptions. ^_^) This is certainly NOT required and does assume that you will USE your additional characters.
