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.
