Plot Problems

October 13, 2007

Not exactly problems, but I’m having some plot doubts. One problem is that I over-thought and over-outlined in my head my plot, and it doesn’t hold much excitement or discovery for me now. I’m considering writing a sequel to my SuNoWriMo, but the ideas are really sketchy right now – the opposite of my other plot idea. Once again, Gabriel will be the main character with Kylie behind, if not even. I think Zerian and Rain will both be in it, too, but I’m not sure about Treasure Phoenix. I’m going to miss Michael. *sniff sniff* I have a vague idea for a new character, too.

This idea puts less…stress (not exactly the right word but close enough) on me about it because I won’t be so intent on getting it perfect, I have more breathing room, and I can always write another sequel if this one doesn’t turn out so well. My plot idea I was going with…it sort of stressed perfect and I don’t think I can do that for NaNo. I might try and write it some other time. Of course, I’m 100% sure I won’t do it for NaNo at all, and neither am I 100% I’ll write a sequel to SuNo if I don’t.

We’ll see what happens.

  1. I’m all over the map in coming up with a plot. This is my first. It looks like you’ve written quite a few. How did you pick a plot before?
