As I ponder starting a novel and what it would entail...

[brainofck]

After my declaration last night that Thor must be a character in all of my original fiction, my brain must have picked that idea up and run with it, because a scene started writing itself, and now I have two original characters and the seeds of a possible story idea. Which is not genrally something that happens to me. But this is how most of my writing ideas start - a story intrudes on my mind and mostly writes itself. It's just startling for it to be not other people's characters with fully developed histories - i.e. fanfic.

And yes, Thor is in it, but I'm not really counting him as one of the OCs. :) And it is not Thor fanfic or anything. But it is defintely the Thor character from the movie, but I'm not worrying about that right now. I mean, in the sense that he walks, talks, and behaves like that Thor, not that he has that Thor's story.
