1. Title. Sententia. Until about 1am this morning it was Others, but that was really just the working title.

2. Character Name. Raven.

3. Guys? Girls? There are 5 characters whose names are mentioned, two of them are girls and the other three are guys.

4. Setting. An art gallery.

5. Genre. Speculative fiction / alternate history.

6. Time period. No specific time period is referenced in it, as that's one of the points of the story, but when writing it I pictured it as being modern-day. It spans 2 days.

7. Random words. Eh, none of them. Eek.

Plus I'll do the second set for shits and gigs.

1) First, second or third? The majority it written in first, but there is a prologue and epilogue written in third.

2. Tone. Ah, I'm not really sure. It's not exactly a bounding-for-joy happy piece, but it's not deep and dark and gothic either. It's a little reflective, but the main word I can describe it with is liberating. Although that makes me sound pretentious.

3) Story span. How many years? About 1/180th of a year. The main piece spans two days, but the prologue/epilogue happens an unspecific number of years later. Between 20 and 30.

4) Dead characters. Nobody really.

5) Previous name. 'Others'. It was really an awful name. I much prefer my new one.

6) Utilisation of main characters. There's only one real 'main' character, but there are 4 people who appear a few times.

7) Sub characters. There are 2 named sub characters, but 5 or 6 unnamed ones.

8) First named plant/animal. Plant would be, ivy? Animal was raven. I think.

9) Night and day? There's 4 daytime scenes and 2 nighttimes ones.

10) More random words. AH! None of those either.
