I’ve given some thought to one of my other plot bunnies, and I’ve been struggling with it.
The premise is that someone stumbles across a secret government agency- it’s an agency so secret even the president doesn’t know about it.
I’ve been struggling with it because what would be so secretive the president doesn’t know about it? Right now, one of the ideas that popped into my mind was something similar to The Event, which is a great t.v. show. Or maybe something based off The Adjustment Bureau. I haven’t seen it, but the trailers I’ve seen intrigue me.
I’m hoping to have a more developed idea in the next month or two. I definitely need to work on my characters too, because there’s only a couple that I’ve come up with.
The idea needs a lot of work, so hopefully by November I’ll have a lot more to work with. I like the idea though, so I’m hoping something will come to me.
I may end up taking it in a different direction, since I’m still not sure what I want to do with it. Coming up with a vague idea is the easy part- it’s developing the idea and the characters that’s slightly more difficult and somewhat problematic. I think I may end up coming up with notes for each idea and see what happens.
