Fiction (Latin fictum, "created") is a branch of literature which deals, in part or in whole, with temporally contrafactual events (events that are not true at the time of writing). In contrast to this is non-fiction, which deals exclusively in factual events (e.g. biographies, histories). Semi-fiction is fiction implementing a great deal of non-fiction,[1] e.g. a fictional description based on a true story.

The history of fiction coincides with much of the history of literature, with each genre of fiction having its own origins and development.

A character is any person, persona, identity, or entity that exists in a work of art. Characters may be entirely fictional or based upon real, historical entities (see Historical fiction). Characters may be human, supernatural, mythical, divine, animal, or personifications of an abstraction. Characterisation is the process of creating an image of a person in fiction, complete with that person's traits, features, and motivation.[2]

Plot is a sequence of interrelated events arranged to form a logical pattern and achieve an intended effect. It is often designed with a narrative structure or storyline, that includes conflict, rising action, and climax, followed by a falling action and a resolution or dénouement.[3]

1. Great Villains: Shylock, Iago, Claggart
November 21, 2009

Who doesn't love 'good villains,' if your pardon the oxymoron?? Villains are the antagonists, the bad guys, the 'black hats" in the story, without whom the story would be useless. Tough, wily, intelligent villains can challenge the other characters in your fiction. Weak villains call for weak heroes. It's not the good heart of the hero, nor the beauty of the heroine, nor the noble actions of the good characters that make great fiction-not at all. It's the caliber of the scoundrels that call for the good deeds and ennobling noble actions of heroes, super-heroes, and even secondary characters... (read more)

3. Trivia Quiz for Science Junkies
November 19, 2009

Ok, I admit it, I am a science junkie. I’m not really smart enough to understand all of the stuff I read, but I still find it fascinating. It probably goes hand in hand with being a lover of science fiction. When you think about it though a lot of the latest science news reads like science fiction. Recently I’ve read about how scientists have successfully created a rudimentary invisibility cloaking device, mounted mini video cameras on beetles and can remote control their flight by putting electrodes in their brains, and that kind of thing. Just a few days ago I read about a su... (read more)

There are lots of law of attraction articles and information that can be found all over the internet in just about every form of media imaginable, but unfortunately lots of the information can be a little misleading.

5. What Makes Classic Books?
November 19, 2009

A classic is, “Something that everybody wants to have read and nobody wants to read," or so said Mark Twain. What characterizes a classic work of fiction? Is it determined by the number of printings the book has undergone? Is it a classic because it has been translated into many languages? Is it called a classic because some distinguished soul said it is a classic? Though these are interesting to note, they do not determine a work is classic. A classic first is timely. This means that it is often an influence on, or, at least, an expression of the times when it was written. Uncle To... (read more)

7. The ancient city of Mdina never loses its fascination
November 19, 2009

Time travel, as we are all too well aware, remains the stuff of science fiction. One day, maybe, but not for now. Sadly that means we will never be able to flick a switch and appear in the middle of a medieval joust armed with a six pack and digital camera. However, in Malta we do have one of the closest things you will ever find to time travel – the ancient city of Mdina. From the second you step through its imposing gates it will truly feel like you have turned back the clock several hundred years. The narrow streets, fascinating architecture and overall ambience of this stunning place ... (read more)

12. The Value of Your Stamps: Separating Fact from Fiction
November 16, 2009

As the old adage goes, you will never see or realize the value of something unless it is gone. In stamp collecting, stamps do not have to disappear or go kaput before somebody knows or understands their value. In fact, people had long been knowledgeable about the value of stamps that is why stamp collecting was born in the first place. Simply put, if not for the value, stamps would have remained the usual miniature section in the envelope that bears no significant value except for the charges that a person has to pay before their letters will be sent. However, history has it tha... (read more)

November 13, 2009

Digital cameras which can take 3D images might seem straight out of science fiction, however that is not the case. Not just because the technology for taking 3D images already exists, but also because the technology is simpler than most people understand. 3D or more accurately the illusion of three dimensions is very easy to achieve, and now we have camera available to consumers for this very purpose. One might think that a 3D camera would have to somehow capture a scene from all angles and locations, and a real 3D "scanner" would be something like that, however a what a 3D camera really ...

November 12, 2009

The transference of novels to movies can easily be taken as the first and most prolific sources or screenplays and scripts, with the very first printed book ever, The Bible, being the source of film many times. The total amount of novels that have been created is cause enough for books to provide the outline for many movies, yet can scenes and films truly represent and interpret an authors creation?Novels, texts and books sourced for movies range from non-fiction historical accounts to works of fiction to autobiographies to plays to comic books with the creative licence of the director and s...

November 11, 2009

There are so many myths out there that it's sometimes hard to discern truth from fiction in practically every aspect of life. You would be hard pressed to analyze every one of them to determine their validity. However, the propaganda that people love to spew about is motivated by many agendas indeed, despite many peoples best intentions. The crazy thing about myths is that they have a lot of grey involved in them and part truths so not all are true blue fiction. The reality is, our lives are guided in some respects by these very lies and we see many of them as a vital po... (read more)

23. NYC Cop Marc Morales: Swine Flu In NYC
November 10, 2009

After a whole shift riding that damn patrol car, I decided to walk -to keep the circulation flowing on my numb legs- from the Precinct to the Blues Bar & Grill, on Second Avenue. Not only was the joint packed, but noisy as hell. It smelled of burnt chicken wings. Not having much to do this glorious (high up in the 70s), Friday-afternoon, I told Saleem, the bartender, to run me a tab. I was on my third beer chaser when a huge guy -who was being loud and obnoxious- at the end of the bar all of a sudden keeled over. Pandemonium broke. Then Silence engulfed the joint. The two fellow... (read more)

25. Edgar Allan Poe's Unity Of Impression - How To Write A Short Story
November 05, 2009

When I sat down to write my mini story on "Alzheimer's" I pretty much had on mind Edgar Allan Poe's writing principle: Unity of impression. To bind the story together I used an object (a 100-burnt out light bulb) that would mirror and symbolize human life: that it eventually burns out. Poe held that a good work has to be short enough to be read in one sitting. If it requires two sittings, the unity of impression and effect is damaged. That is why he was so critical of Milton's long poem "Paradise Lost." Because of that long-held belief, Poe wrote only one novel: "The Narrative of A. Gord... (read more)
