The Villain: Major John Pitcairn

As I work on my last character bio, the main villain, Major John Pitcairn, I realized I needed to know more about him. So I did a little more research online. And I found this site:

It's only a page of information, but it's some information that is extremely helpful and definitely gives me some ideas for back story within scenes. Also, on the site it mentions Pitcairn used to host socials where everyone, Patriots and Loyalists, could come and discuss things like civilized people over a drink. I'm trying to fit that into my story in someway. I feel like that could be a good reconnaissance mission/sequence. Maybe.

  1. I salute your immersion in this material, but don't get lost in the research. You need to actually get your thoughts organized and begin writing.

  2. I about finished my bios the other day and I'll be finishing up my scene list by tomorrow night.
