Yeah, I aggree with your assessment based on thw work so far, but the longer piece actually develops more characters, such as his parents with their own problems, I'm adding a sister into the plot, There's a first girlfriend before he meets his wife which gives more depth to the plot idea itself, and overall it is a lot more involved. I know where I want to take it, I just don't know how to get there...I should probably move this over to your fancy new "rewrite-athon" forum...

I personally like #2 as well, but i fell like it only tells one sixth of the story, which isn't exactly a good feeling to have. But on the other hand I'd really like to keep it in one perspective, which #3 would be nearly impossible to accomplish through. Id have to switch 1st person narration, or move into 3rd person, whicgh doesn't give me the feel I want. I do aggree with you about #4. I tried writing in that today during class, and it just turned into one long monotonous piece of writing.

Thanks for the input.

To find North, one must first determine which way is which, which way is right, and be dissapointed that North is left.
