Not Done with 2YN

So I haven't posted anything new on here in a while, and that's because I haven't posted anything new on the 2YN boards in a while.  I don't think I'm that far behind - I'm sure I can spend some time and catch up, I don't think 2YN is something I want to give up on.

The reason I decided to write a new post is just to say that I'm starting Script Frenzy in April and I'm excited - mostly because TV scripts are a little more low-key than novels and I'm not so serious about it, so I think that for me it will make it easier to come up with ideas.

Waffles

So I changed my mind about what I want my story to be about - I'm worried that I'm never going to come to a decision, so I'm making a concsious effort to keep with this new story and not change the premise again. The problem is that the nature of novels is ambiguity and change right up to publication, so to commit to one thing so solidly might jeopordize future ideas. I have to find a balance. I do know one thing for certain - I'm not doing assignment one over again!

Assignment #1 - Complete

I have finished assignment #1 for 2YN, but as I went over all the other posts already up I'm beginning to feel like my story isn't quite up to par.

What I'm really worried about is the theme - I want a theme that I actually care about. I want people to read my novel and truly get something from it. I'm going to have work long and hard on that one.
