   * If characters are needed, what action and prop can I give them?
   * Later in the process I can see if I need extra emphasis using the physicality of make visible or tangible artefacts to endorse the memories?
-  * Lynne says that once established you will be inclined to do additional research on your subjects, I can confirm that. Making a mind-palace or walk, does trigger curiosity and you start to add more and more details into your subects, hooks, nodes.. (I observe this even after only two or three weeks of full-on experience.)
