Oct. 11: - Setting: Definitions List ▼

(1) Create a list of definitions (see below) in a format easy to edit and expand.
(2) Optional: Brainstorm and describe an object critical to the plot. Add to definitions list.

In your definitions list, you'll flesh out details that you'll want to remember later for consistency. You won't have to dig through pages of scribbled notes to find whatever you decided about these definitions - they will all be compiled into a neat list / binder / database / note cards / whatever your favorite form of organization happens to be.

Example definitions for the Harry Potter series:
*Bullet* rules of magic
*Bullet* the Ministry of Magic
*Bullet* modes of transportation (apparition, Floo network, portkeys, flying, etc.)
*Bullet* the four Houses at Hogwarts
*Bullet* the sword of Gryffindor (note: this would also make a good plot background story)

Non-speculative examples requiring definitions:
*Bullet* a fictional student organization to which your protagonist belongs
*Bullet* the fictional company or division of the FBI for whom your protagonist works
*Bullet* the disease afflicting your protagonist, which is a real condition you need to research
*Bullet* the antique artifact your protagonist intends to heist

NOTE: You can revise this list at any time, so this revision is not expected to be fully accurate or complete

Definition List for research:

*Bullet* Los Angeles (p. 879-903;880-1,884, 9,1036-7 of Lonely Planet USA)
*Bullet* Wolf’s night job as a male escort (what, how, where, with whom)
*Bullet* The world of auctions
*Bullet* The Book Shanhaijing (and the Penguin Classic The Classic of Mountains and Seas)
*Bullet* The three ancient Chinese monsters
*Bullet* China and Beijing (Lonely Planet China, p.16,50-112,52-3,56,83. 746,748.)
*Bullet* The riddle
