Hi
I made some changes to the subject list based on our discussions so
far and emailed it to you all - its now down to five main categories
from seven. Some further questions:
SECTION 1 - Themes & sources
Should this be the first section ? I thought it kind of set the
scene, but don't mind if you want to make it section four instead.
I took (relation)SHIPPING out of it, and put it into section 2.
SECTION 2 - Individual characters
I put beasts, beings & spirits into here (sections 2.9, 2.10 and
2.11).
Finally, section 2.12 is relationSHIPPING - it can be a place for
ships between any type of character, human, magical or otherwise,
which hopefully fulfills all tastes..
However, I am still a bit concerned that theories such as LOLLIPOPS
might end up here - my own preference would be to keep these with
their key characters.
My thinking here is guided not by an outbreak of gooey sentiment, but
just that relationships between the adult characters might well be
significant for the plot, whereas the vast majority of the SHIPPING
between the schoolkids seems to be just wishful thinking. (Except, I
suppose, if jealousy caused by it all leads to future betrays..?).
I have also left the list of theory acronyms with their characters
for the time being - do you agree with how they are allocated, for
instance, the vast over-simplification of putting MAGIC DISHWASHER
with Dumbledore, just because one of the central themes of it is that
he is the puppet master..
SECTIONS 3-4 are largely as before.
Finally, a question for Carolina:
Presumably all the sections of this list should be numbered to
several levels, eg
1
1.1
1.1.1
1.1.1
This is ok, but the characters are currently organised
alphabetically, what happens if we insert a new character half way
down a list ??
Look forward to your thoughts
Carolyn
