Characters & Viewpoints  ~ Orson Scott Card

Chapter 1. What is a character?

I’ve listed the notes taken on character building from most important to least important.

A character is their:

Actions & motive: everyone acts a certain way but why do they act the way they do?  

Past: “People are what they have done, and what have been done to them.” (8). 

Reputation: what do other people think of you. Or more to the book, people gossip and from that, they make a snap judgment. What reputation does your character have with the others in your story?  

Stereotype (w/in their job, sex, age, family role, race, ethnicity...): here, the author encourages us to use stereotypes to our advantage. we have to “count on” our readers to make these stereotypical judgments. “Characters who fit within a stereotype are familiar; we think we know them, and we aren’t all that interested in knowing them better. [...] Characters who violate a stereotype are interesting...” (11). 

Habits/patterns: what they do on the regular basis and if they try to change it, why? 

Talents/abilities: are they extremely gifted? In what away? Are they not?

Tastes & preferences: do they prefer to look or act a certain way?

Body: what do they look like?

Chapter 2. What makes a good fictional character? 

There three questions readers ALWAYS ask within the first paragraph: So what? Why should they care? Oh yeah? This is the clue/explanation that should persuade readers to trust you. Huh? Make it clear. Make it believable. 

YOU ARE THE FIRST AUDIENCE! - if you don’t care about what you’re writing, your audience also will not care. 

Questions to always ask:  WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? (in my opinion, the best question) Interrogate the situation and your character. Brainstorm a list of possible ways that events can go wrong, but still, drive the story and your character to an outcome/solution.

WHY?  Why is this happening? Why did the character act this way toward this event/person?  * Don’t ever settle for your first answer. The first answer is always obvious and too static. Add a twist (the author talks more about this in chapter 3, page 50):

~Maybe character X isn’t out to kill character Y because Y killed X’s family. Maybe X is killing because (they think) it’s their duty to kill, or X is just deranged and obsessed, they think killing is the solution to their problem.

Hey guys... I have been busy with my exams and they seem never ending to me 😔😔 But.. the show must go on and that's what I am telling myself. Exams don't come easy in medical school because you get just a day or two to get the humongous amount of syllabus inside your heads I have been spending sleepless nights and days with headaches but still you have to study.. there's no escape. I know I can get through with it but negative feelings are a part of our lives. The winner is the person who beats this negativity out of her system and fights to achieve her dreams.. Happy studying people 😘😘 #studygram #indianstudygram #medgram #medblr #medicalstudents #medlifestyle #medstudent #medicinelife💉💊 #notesagram #notesinspo #notesfordays #medicalnotesfordays #medicalnotes123 #surgery #gallbladdersurgery #miniso #premed #premedstudent #clinicals

A SENSOR INSIDE THIS SMART PEN TURNS ALL YOUR HANDWRITTEN NOTES INTO EDITABLE DIGITAL TEXT

Imagine being able to write emails on a chunk of paper. The NEWYES Sync Smart Pen outwardly looks like a ordinary ballpoint pen, but it’s a marvel of tech at the inside. With a motion-monitoring sensor at the inside, the pen turns everything you write into digital textual content, changing your hand-written notes and hand-drawn doodles and sketches into editable virtual files. Think of the SyncPen as an Apple Pencil or a Samsung Galaxy Smart Pen that can also write on paper. Designed to appearance and feel like a normal pen, the SyncPen comes with an in-built micro-digicam that captures what you write at a frequency of two hundred frames consistent with second, turning all of your notes into virtual text that can be stored infinitely, edited, and even searched through. The pen digitally facts all of your notes onto your smartphone, permitting you to seamlessly transition between digital and physical timekeeping. If you ever need to refer back to your notes for a certain piece of text, you could look for it both by word or date, much like inside your phone’s personal note-maintaining app. The SyncPen’s functionality works across sixty six languages and can even transcribe and translate mathematical symbols. The pen actively plays handwriting recognition, allowing you to put in writing in your very own private writing style at the same time as the pen actively works to translate it on its personal. NeoLab, Livescribe, Wacom and Scanmarker are the best brands who deals into Smart Pen all over the world.

However, there’s greater to the SyncPen. The pen itself comes with a removable refill system that helps you to replace the ballpoint nib for a capacitive tip. Allowing you to use it on virtual devices as a regular stylus too. When paired in conjunction with the NEWYES LCD Tablet, the SyncPen can take notes digitally too. Permitting you to use it as you would an iPad and Apple Pencil. You can use the 10″ LCD Pad as a paperless alternative to a notebook. But moreover, the pad helps you to take notes in unique colors. Even as also permitting you to carry out sports like directly send your notes as an email to others. Collaborate with teams to percentage notes, and even record audio logs alongside your textual content. Together, the SyncPen and its companion LCD Tablet (need to you choose to use it) hope to revolutionize note-taking. The smart pen itself has the capability to digitally transcribe files across a couple of languages and handwriting styles. All in a form component that’s as thin as a ballpoint pen itself. The SyncPen weighs a trifling 20 grams, and works irrespective of how you hold it. It runs on Bluetooth 5.0. Seamlessly sending written textual content to an app in your phone. That could then convert your notes into quite a few formats. From a Microsoft Word file to a PDF or a JPG. Moreover, it approach being capable of take endless notes without traumatic about losing your pocket book. Or no longer being able to find a selected piece of information. The SyncPen lets you hold digital copies of all of your notes and doodles. Whether or not they’re mins of a meeting, sketches of a product idea. A mindmap of a commercial enterprise model, or notes of a lecture. Oh, and the smart pen and LCD tablet include a price tag of $99. Which sounds pretty unbeatable to me! Read the full article

Here is a timelapse video of the basic arterial supply of eyeball. I want to mention one small thought, one of my teachers tell us in the class that if you actually want to learn and remember things, the best way is to teach it to someone else. It doesn't decrease our knowledge, rather it adds up to our understanding of the subject. I hope you guys adopt this way and help others while helping yourself.
