I don't mean to change your direction if you already have one. Pfft, I don't really have one yet, so you're all good. If you take these two characters who will become your main? I think the customer has to be the main, because he's the one who needs to grow and change the most. The tattoo artist is already fairly self-confident and accepting of who he is. In your main character what needs to change? What part of them has to change for them to be a better/different person? He's ashamed of his own identity. He's afraid to be himself. He doesn't like who he is. What kind of outcome do you want for your story? Do you want something with a happy ending or maybe something tragic but cathartic for the reader? Definitely a happy ending. I don't do any other kind of endings! ![]() What do you want the reader to take away? Is your story a light/bubblegum story or is it a gut wrenching one? I don't know the answer to that question. *shrugs* Who or what is your antagonist? Are they people from the outside? Is it self-doubt? Maybe you have characters from their past coming back to haunt them. This is what I was playing with in my 'what if' questions. I definitely think it's self-doubt and self-loathing though, so maybe I've just answered your question? Also, don't go for the obvious. When you ask a question try and go with your second answer for it. In that case, ignore all my answers above. ![]() ![]() ** Animated Images For Use By Premium+ Only ** |
