In the US, today is Memorial Day! Which means noooooooooo school! Even though I don't really agree with the Iraq War, I will thank those soldiers who put themselves forward to protect their country. So THANK YOU!
I've completely and utterly revamped that new story I was planning. As in it has changed genres and whatnot. But it is much closer to my original story idea.
So what was with that? Well, my characters were boring me. Reallyreallyreally much so. None of them were spunky. They were reallyreallyreally drab. As in very matte. Dull. Boring. Ceres was so much of a motherly character and she was just sososososo Irish I was drowning in red hair. That I did not like at all. Sophia was so innocent. An innocence I'm planning on continuing in my new draft. And Kaylea is a name I happen to like so I'm keeping that too, as well as Theia, though Theia will go through a major revamping as a character. That leaves me with one more girl and 4 guys.
I've got a basic outline in my head. Maybe I need more precise planning?

NAAAAAAAAAH. Too much restriction. And then I have to make the personal decision if I want to make it more than one set. As in a series. Currently, I'm going with one book. If I get any other brainwaves, then I'll see.
