Q: Once you have given your villain a convincing backstory, you should think about the nature of the conflict between your villain and your hero. This will allow you to add to the villain's character and get a good sense of the villain's motivation as a character. Outlining their conflict will also help you structure the rest of the story, starting from the beginning of the conflict and building up to the showdown between the villain and the hero. For example, the villain may desire powers that only the hero can access. This may then lead to the villain seeking out the hero and plotting to control the hero for her own uses. Or, maybe your villain can only achieve her goal by taking something from the hero. They may then pursue the hero and hurt the hero, leading the hero to retaliate and fight back. One way to characterize the villain in a scene so they stand out is to give them a distinct voice. Think about how the villain might speak to others in a scene or to the hero. Maybe the villain has a unique perspective on a situation that comes through in the way they speak. Ask yourself, Does the villain have an accent when they speak? Do they use different wording or phrasing that indicates their evil nature? Many villains will speak with menace and use words to manipulate weaker characters. Maybe your villain is skilled at wordplay and uses words to confuse or trick other characters. To give your villain purpose and meaning in your story, you should map out their master plan. Doing this will also allow you to structure your story around the villain's master plan or factor in the master plan when you are thinking about how the hero will move through your story. Most villain's have elaborate plans with an ultimate goal or endgame. Defining this will also ensure your villain appears determined and motivated in every scene of your story, as they have a clear purpose or goal. For example, your villain may have a master plan to use science to create a monster that will wreak havoc on the city and allow them to take vengeance on those who have wronged them in the past. This master plan may then have several parts that you will need to show your reader so they get a sense of the villain's plan. Your villain may also work more in the shadows or pull strings behind the scenes, moving one step ahead of your hero. You may integrate their master plan into the larger story by having the hero discover clues of the plan, leading to the ultimate showdown between the hero and the villain. A perfect villain requires the ultimate showdown between good and evil. Your story should have a plot outline that builds up to a face off where the villain and the hero battle in some way. This should be the high point of conflict and tension in the story, where the villain finally unveils their true intentions to the hero. Your villain and your hero may battle through a game of wits or a battle of magic. Or, your villain may set a trap that your hero must survive or a test that your hero must solve. Make sure the showdown is full of obstacles and difficulties created by the villain so the stakes are high for both the villain and the hero in your story.
A: Determine the conflict between the villain and the hero of your story. Give the villain a distinct voice. Create a master plan for the villain. Build up to a showdown between the hero and the villain.

Article: ID tags should have your dog's name and your current phone number. That way, if someone finds your dog, that person can locate you. Be sure to update the tags if your information changes. A microchip is a harmless chip that is inserted into the back of the neck. The chip contains an ID that any vet or shelter can scan for. The ID can then be used to find your contact information so that vets or shelters can call you when they find your dog. Be sure to update your information as it changes, as out-of-date information will not be useful to your dog. One reason you should microchip and have ID tags on your dog is because collars can come loose when dogs are outside. The tags are then lost, which won't help anyone get your dog back to you. Make sure you don't have any holes in your backyard fences or anywhere that makes it easy for your dog to escape. Also, be careful when opening the door, making sure your dog isn't waiting to dart out. You can purchase a tag that goes on your dog's collar that has GPS tracking. If your dog gets loose, you can use your phone to track her down. For a more advanced option, microchips are available with this same technology, which would be embedded in your dog's skin, so it couldn't be lost.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Put on an ID tag. Get your dog microchipped. Close up any escape points. Try a GPS microchip or tag.

Q: This simple yet effective move is guaranteed to make her smile. Whether it's Valentine's Day, her birthday, or even a day during a random week when you know she's feeling a bit blue, then making the gesture to send her some flowers along with a short note will make her see that she really means something to you. Ideally, knowing which flowers she likes the most is better than sending her a generic bouquet or flowers; see if you can find out her favorite type of flower without being too obvious. Keep it a surprise. Don't let her know they're coming (though you should make sure she'll be home to accept the delivery). What, you're too manly to bake some cookies, package them properly, and send them to your special lady's address? Pish posh. If you want to go out of your way to impress the girl and show off your culinary skills, then make some simple chocolate chip or oatmeal raisin cookies and send 'em her way. Or if your mom or sister has made another batch of her famous cookies, send several of them to your special girl. Really: she'll be impressed that you think she's so special that you want to share your favorite sweets with her. It goes without saying that you should only mail them to her when you know she'll be home. You should wait for the cookies to cool down and then send them off as soon as you can after that. This is even more romantic than going into a store and buying a CD for the girl. Make a compilation of all of your favorite tunes, making sure that they are songs that she actually likes. If you love Metallica but are pretty sure that's not her thing, you can keep it off the list. If there are any special songs that make you think of each other, then you can add those to the mix. You can write Katie's ultimate mix or something short to remind her of you. You don't have to pick something overly sappy or sentimental. Pick something that puts her in a fun frame of mind and makes her think of you. If you've been traveling, send her a cute and short postcard with a picture of where you've been and say that you've been thinking of her. Just drop her a few lines about some of the fun stuff you've been doing without making her feel left out and drop a quick, "You'd love it here!" or something that would make her feel like she's still on your mind no matter how far away you are. If you want to be cute, you can send her a postcard even if you haven't gone anywhere. Send her a postcard from your hometown and say, "I love it here!" It'll make her laugh and will score you major originality points. If you're spending the summer in Florida, send her a few shells you found on the beach. If you're backpacking in Europe, send her a small souvenir from the city where you stopped. If you're just spending the summer at your grandmother's apple orchard, send her a bushel of apples that aren't fully ripe yet. Do something to give her a sense of place and to think about you in another location. The ultimate goal is always to have the girl both thinking of you, thinking you're thoughtful, and wanting to be where you are.

Send her flowers. Send her cookies. Send her a CD mix. Send her a postcard. Send her something from your location.
