I've got three (that's right, three!) plot ideas and I'm not sure which one I should choose to do in November. No, I'm not going to spill any of the plots here--I want whichever one I do eventually pick to be a surprise for anyone who wants to follow my Nano efforts--but I do want to talk vaguely about them which might make it easier for me to decide.
*The Fantasy Plot. A.K.A. the delayed coming-of-age, finding oneself plot. The great thing about this idea is that it's in a totally different world where I can just literally make stuff up as I go along. The bad thing is: I have to make stuff up. This will require lots of worldbuilding and working out major logical inconsistencies before I even start.
*The Action Plot. A.K.A. the supernatural with kick-ass characters plot. It will also be dark and angsty and depressing. I'm not sure I want to go through November depressed. But there will be weird characters and suspense. Secret societies and superstition on ice.
*The Comedy/Horror Plot. A.K.A. the fantasy in the suburbs plot. But I'm not sure if I can keep a humorous tone throughout the month either. There will be a haunted house (or two), neighborhood BBQs, magic, desperate housewives, and probably some pinball machines.
There's also the scope that I have to factor in. The Fantasy Plot will take place across an entire region the basically encompasses a couple countries. The Action Plot will mostly take place in a city. And the Comedy/Horror Plot will be on a single street. I could go the easy way and scrape all of this and come up with a brand new plot. But that would just be more work....
