Story Bible Attention Items
Things that may need attention gathers open questions, warnings and continuity notes from the project reference.
Tags: story bible, attention, continuity, revision
Overview
Attention items are prompts from the project reference. They point to facts, scenes or continuity details that may need review.
When Should I Use This?
Use this section before drafting, before exporting the Story Bible, or during revision triage.
How To Use It
Read each item as a question. Decide whether it needs fixing now, should be handled later, or is intentionally unresolved.
Example
An attention item may remind you that a plot thread is still open or that a scene is missing a key location.
Writer Tip
Attention items reduce the burden of remembering everything. Let the reference system hold the nagging details.
Common Mistakes
- Treating every attention item as urgent.
- Ignoring items before a major export.
- Forgetting that some unresolved questions are deliberate.
