Novel proposal…blog #13

April 2, 2008 cola87

I have decided to use the characters from a novel I am currently writing and make this a spin off from that. The main characters are Andrea, Mimi, Shawn and Raashaun. Mimi and Andrea are best friends, and Shawn and Raashaun are as well. I think the story will begin senior year of college, right before Andrea and Mimi’s graduation.

The main plot that will tie into my research will be Andrea’s struggle with her weight and her love of fashion that is prohibited due to her size. The guys will come into play eventually. With Shawn falling in love with her and helping her to learn to love her size just as he does. There may also be a part in the story where she goes up against an antagonist…but I am not sure yet.

I want to develop my characters well within the first chapter or so, that way the audience can relate to them and their struggles later on. Although the story will begin with the girls away at college, I think I want them so eventually move to the city(Philly) where they are both working and I want them to meet the guys at a club or something of that nature.

Of course I plan on having some steamy sex scenes in this novel, because that is what I like to read, and have always enjoyed writing that way.

Your creative writing sounds interesting. What is a antagonist(this word was stated in your proposal)? I can see where your research will be used, and I like how your going to make the story from pasrt of your life-you are from philly correct? (which will be a setting, as you stated).

I think your novel is going to turn out very well. I think it’s really cool that you’ve already began working on it and can use part of it in this class. It sounds very interesting!!!
