BitbrainI honestly haven’t even read much about these characters. I whipped up a quick line of “it’s all in the details” and here we are, characters extracted from the outline. What does it mean? What’s the point? Well, if you haven’t read my other stuff, I start with a title, a summary. I build an outline. Now I’ve extracted the characters from the outline. Then I fill in details from the outline and make up extra detail that just isn’t there. The idea is that when I feed these characters back into the outline I can enhance the story with the detail.
I’ve extracted the characters I currently have from the json and I present them to you now. I am still not to the point of refining anything. I am unsure if I’ll need to make extra passes and on what. You may notice some characters are repeated. It’s a work in progress. Without further ado:
