- People. With 7 people in the group, it's hard to give them all equal attention. Should I keep all of them or drop them?
- Anime's kidnapping. That's a big part of the story, but it's taking attention off of everything else. (School, home, etc.) It needs to make a little sense, or at least have a little story.

Okay, I already have most of the Random Story planned out, but right now there's too much going on. Comment and tell me what we should drop. Here are some ideas:

Always have a clear idea of what's happening and what is going to happen. Know what you're going to write before you write it - it's best to have your entire story planned out. As for the number of characters, only use characters who are actually important and relevant to the story. If they're not important, get rid of them either temporarily or permanently. For example, in Burning Eden, Caitlin, Dani, and Anna are all very important characters, but they're not relevant until later in the story. Thus, for the majority of part one, they are still in Ashbrook, out of sight and out of mind, leaving the reader to concentrate on the current situation with Lily and the other Devil's Advocates. However, when it's time for them to start a major role, they share a bit more of the spot-light. Don't ever have characters just for the sake of having characters.
That is a big comment. Do what your gut tells you josh!!! Or your spleen. I always have a hard time telling the difference.
