Want to create characters readers can't forget? Start here.Most fiction writers know what their characters do-but struggle with why they do it. Fiction Character Psychology bridges that gap, giving you the psychological frameworks professional writers use to build authentic, multi-dimensional characters that resonate with readers long after the final page. This isn't another "fill in the character worksheet" guide. It's a comprehensive exploration of human psychology specifically adapted for fiction writing-from foundational personality theory to the subtle markers of trauma, mental illness, and moral complexity. Inside, you'll discover: <ul><li>Personality architecture - How the Big Five traits, MBTI types, and Enneagram systems create distinct character voices and behavior patterns</li><li>Motivation frameworks - Why Maslow's Hierarchy (with a revolutionary internal/external needs approach) explains what drives your characters at every stage of their journey</li><li>Psychological authenticity - How to portray depression, anxiety, PTSD, personality disorders, and other conditions without stereotypes or exploitation</li><li>Relationship dynamics - The Karpman Drama Triangle, attachment styles, and interpersonal patterns that create compelling conflict</li><li>Moral complexity - How to build characters who operate in ethical gray zones without losing reader sympathy</li><li>Age-appropriate development - Psychological realism for characters from childhood through elderhood</li><li>Specialized populations - Authentic portrayal of characters with disabilities, neurodivergence, and marginalized identities</li><li>Applied techniques - Practical tools for revealing psychology through action, dialogue, and internalization rather than exposition</li></ul>Whether you're writing literary fiction, genre thrillers, romance, or science fiction, this reference transforms abstract psychology into concrete character-building strategies. Each section moves from foundational concepts to nuanced applications, with examples showing how psychological principles manifest in actual character behavior. Stop creating cardboard cutout puppets. Start building characters who leap off the page and live in the reader's mind.

Bid Champions Ltd

Security should shape the pursuit before the certificate is ever mentioned. ISO/IEC 27001 is often treated as a certificate, a security questionnaire or something IT deals with after the bid is already taking shape. Bid Security by Design takes the opposite approach: information security becomes part of how the opportunity is qualified, captured, designed, written, reviewed, submitted, handed over and improved. This practical British field manual connects ISO/IEC 27001:2022, Annex A and APMP-aligned pursuit practice into one end-to-end operating model for secure bidding. It shows how to: <ul><li>identify security, privacy, certification and supplier risks before committing to a pursuit;</li><li>control tender packs, classifications, workspaces, guest access and sensitive information;</li><li>turn risk assessment and treatment into usable controls and a defensible Statement of Applicability;</li><li>connect secure solution design, pricing, evidence and tender claims so they describe the same service;</li><li>govern suppliers, cloud services, AI tools, remote work and external contributors;</li><li>write security responses from controlled evidence rather than generic assurance language;</li><li>structure independent review, verification, release and secure submission;</li><li>handle clarifications, negotiation, incidents and post-award security handover;</li><li>apply all 93 Annex A controls through the practical lens of bid and proposal work;</li><li>monitor, audit, correct and improve the secure-pursuit system; and</li><li>build a working secure-pursuit ISMS through a practical ninety-day implementation route.</li></ul>The field toolkit includes an ISO/IEC 27001 clause-to-bid crosswalk, a complete Annex A 93-control bid crosswalk, an APMP-aligned lifecycle map, working process packs, risk and Statement of Applicability tools, audit questions, realistic security scenarios, opportunity-specific control plans, role guides and a practical security scoreboard. Written for bid managers, proposal managers, bid writers, information-security and quality professionals, commercial leaders, SMEs, consultants and larger organisations that need security to operate inside the pursuit rather than around it. A certificate can support assurance. This book is about making the operating evidence behind the claim strong enough to survive the deadline, the evaluator and delivery after award.

Bid Security by Design

What if reading poetry could change you--not just what you think, but how you move through the world?For forty years, Thomas Gardner led students through this transformative act--not analyzing poems from a distance but reperforming them from the inside. Walking together through Elizabeth Bishop's broken beaches, Robert Frost's snowy woods, and Emily Dickinson's rooms of possibility, they discovered that getting lost is how we are found. That acknowledging fragility opens eyes to wonder. That poems, like parables, ask us not to produce definitive explanations but to keep up.A Place of Encounter is Gardner's luminous record of this work. Through fifty-one short lyric essays moving between memory, close reading, and theological reflection, he opens up the inner drama of poems as spiritual exercises--spaces where, as Dickinson puts it, our narrow hands are forced wide to gather paradise. With the grace and precision of the poems he loves, Gardner shows how deep reading grooves interior change.Here is the classroom as temple: bodies leaning forward, voices rising together, readers discovering they're no longer alone. Here is teaching from a position of faith that speaks across every spiritual commitment. Here is poetry as a place of encounter.

<div>Mo Willems, a #1 New York Times bestselling and award-winning author and illustrator, delivers a personal, philosophical, and pragmatic look at the art of writing for children.&nbsp;From the creator of The Pigeon, Elephant &amp; Piggie, Knuffle Bunny, and other beloved children's characters comes a collection of essays chronicling Mo Willems' early life through his award-winning career in children's television, theater, art, and books. Willems delivers an in-depth study of his writing process, explores his philosophy on writing for children, and dissects one of his picture books-cover to cover-to give readers a behind-the-scenes look at his creative process. Essays include art, photos, and memorabilia from Willems' sketchbooks and personal archives.Comprised of over twenty-five essays-some writing about stories, others stories about writing-Willems breaks down approaches to the art of storytelling, offers surprising insights and helpful tactics, and answers his most frequently asked question, "Where do you get your ideas?" From Willems' foundational years working at Sesame Street to his groundbreaking debut picture book Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! to his expansion into exhibits, comedy shows, musicals, and theater, readers go behind the pages and discover how a persistent sketchbook doodle launched a billion "NOs!"</div>

Multilingual Writing in Entanglement offers deep, behind-the-scenes insight into multilingual writing processes through ethnographically constructed case studies of two Chinese international students navigating first-year writing assignments. Drawing on fungi studies to develop ecology-informed metaphors, Xiqiao Wang traces how these students' writing unfolds alongside multilingual living, revealing the thickets of relationships with both human participants (peers, teachers, writing consultants) and nonhuman elements (trees, rivers, digital texts, writing technologies) that create opportunities for negotiating across differences. This longitudinal qualitative study follows Morgan and Leo through their undergraduate careers, collecting rich ethnographic data across private, academic, and digital spaces. The resulting theoretical framework conceptualizes multilingual writing as simultaneously strategic, agentive, creative, diffused, contingent, and messy-a phenomenon shaped by dynamic interplay between ephemeral encounters and established practices. Employing chronotopic figuring as a methodological tool, Wang illuminates aspects of multilingual writing often elided in research: fleeting encounters that energize composition, reciprocal relationships that distribute writing labor, unexpected detours that redirect the writing process, and the layering of writing and identity practices across multiple historical trajectories. This approach moves beyond examining writing in isolated moments to trace how meaning emerges across languages, modes, and spacetimes. Multilingual Writing in Entanglement offers crucial insights into how international students strategically and improvisationally reconfigure their semiotic and rhetorical repertoires to write multilingual lives into meaning. This work is influential for scholars and educators in composition, literacy studies, multilingual education, ESL, and linguistics.

A lively examination of what creative writing is, how it is practiced and how it can be better understood, Graeme Harper explores the very nature of the art form in this book, outlining its key components, discussing its methods and breaking down the implications of why writers write, and why it matters that they do. Locating a starting point for knowledge within the practice of writing itself, and as something anyone can undertake, Harper lays out how creative writing relates to personal, cultural, artistic and psychological enrichment, posits how individual choice is intrinsic, and shows how a definition of creative writing can assist action. Uniquely combining practice-perspective with a critical one, the creative writing process is disentangled from its end product here and presented as constantly forming, wherein craft, or the 'how to', should not be applied prescriptively but as a node and used to generate communicative flows. In showing how to understand creative writing, and in suggesting much of what we have been told about it has hidden its true nature, Harper makes a radical case for a universal creative writing; he declares our practice of writing creatively as evidence of an informed humanity, equally devoted to the arts and sciences, and all informed by our individual abilities to empathize, communicate and to create the world.

“Conversational essays on wonder . . . A&nbsp;meditation on what gives life meaning. . . . A loving sermon on the rewards of children’s books.”&nbsp;―Kirkus Reviews Make Believe is bestselling children’s author Mac Barnett’s rallying cry for art and imagination, and a celebration of the power of storytelling in all our lives. It’s an incisive, intimate, and timely invitation to approach children’s literature not only as an art form worthy of deep study and criticism, but as a portal into the lives of the children. And at a time when we are faced with a national literacy crisis,&nbsp;he&nbsp;champions the profound joys of literature and the importance of reading for pleasure. What if children are a great audience for art? What if they are in fact better equipped to engage deeply with stories than adults? What if humans’ ability to appreciate art is, if not innate, awakened early in childhood? Well, then we’d better do our best to make some good kids’ books. Written with humor and academic rigor, Make Believe&nbsp;reads like a letter from your smartest and funniest friend. Includes spreads from Goodnight Moon and Busy, Busy Town, illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen, and cover art by celebrated illustrator Carson Ellis. &nbsp;

On Telling Stories to Children

Make Believe

A creative masterclass for aspiring and established writers alikeAfter decades of writing award-winning books on subjects ranging from poetry to art to liturgical seasons, celebrated author Marilyn McEntyre turns her attention to the vocation that has shaped her life. Start with a Word: On the Craft and Adventure of Writing is a literary masterclass that eschews drills and formulas in favor of close readings and refreshingly playful advice.A veteran teacher, Marilyn understands that the best writing instruction doesn't come from rigid rules or rote approaches to filling the blank page. Instead, she demonstrates how the writers whose works we have enjoyed can become our tutors. She calls us to move beyond asking "What does this text say?" to a more revealing question: "How does this text work?" This shift in perspective--from passive consumption to active apprenticeship--transforms how we encounter literature and how we create it.More than a how-to manual, Start with a Word is an invitation into a way of being that honors both the precision and the mystery of words. It offers short lessons on essential elements of literary craft, close readings of passages from a range of works, writing prompts, and, above all, encouragement for authors to find their unique path into work only they can create. "Reading and writing keep alive in us the desire to be precise, lively, surprising, generous, inviting, challenging, wise. They make us want to be good, if only in the sense that choosing exact and appropriate words is a matter of choosing the good. . . . I don't think you can be an excellent writer without developing some virtues, if only fidelity to a practice that honors the gift of language."
