Character Trait Chart Character Trait Chart and Personality Components It can sometimes be helpful to make a Trait Chart for each character. This is especially helpful during the early stages of character development, before the character becomes as real to you as your mother. To use this chart, print it out and make a copy for each of your characters. Full name - a character's name is very important. Besides the character's official name, we also need to know what he is called (and, perhaps, what he prefers to be called). Date of Birth/Age - we should carefully consider assigning our character a birthday. Address - this can be as detailed or as vague as you wish, but it should answer a few questions: does the character live in a large city, the suburbs, a small town or deep in the country? Height - this doesn't need to be specific. Weight/Body Build - again, we don't really need to know a character's exact weight, only if he or she is stocky, slender or "had a figure that . . ." Smell - everyone has a smell.

Although there are several good guidebooks to creating a science fiction world, few deal with the quintessential elements of a fantasy realm.

Literary agents directory - find an agent So, how do you find an agent to promote your work? Right here is a good place to start. Browse (by location or by topic) or search through our directory of agents to find the right agent for you. Remember, it is important to approach agents that deal with the type of book you intend to publish. Finding a Literary Agent can be the making of a writing career. What Does A Literary Agent Do? There is more to being a writer than stringing words together. Unless you can persuade someone to publish the words you slave over, your writing will remain unknown and unread and writing will drain rather than fill your bank account. That's where a Literary Agent comes in. An agent will give your work a much better chance of escaping the slush piles that threaten to overwhelm the office space of all successful publishers. Can I Trust An Agent Listed in This Directory? The WritersNet Directory of Literary Agents may include agents who charge a reading fee for reviewing a manuscript. Articles & Posts

JAPANESE SWORD ERAS The development of the Japanese sword closely parallels events in Japanese history. The broad divisions of each are noted above. The specific historical eras are referred to as "nengo" and are named after the emperor of the period.
