I don’t use index cards, although I can see how they could
be useful—especially when working on a screenplay, which by it’s nature lends itself to encapsulation—I just don’t have the feel for them. But today the site has me scribbling down my characters traits on index cards (an excel
spreadsheet).
I developed a little worksheet to help with this stage of the process.
