It'd need a lot more fleshing out, but I think this could have potential as a novel Yeah, I would love to do something like that one day. Maybe I will. For now I just want to get this idea out there (mainly out of my head). I already see the finish line, just gonna take a bit to get there and I plan on leaving the ending open enough for a sequel. Yeah, I would recommend working your way there, as far as writing goes. A lot of writing blogs will say that writing short stories before moving onto books is useless, since they're two different beasts to tame. And this is true, they are two different things. But I honestly think that starting with short stories and slowly moving your way into bigger and bigger things as your skill improves is the best way to do it, because with small-scope stories, its a lot easier to really hammer out kinks in writing and work on areas you need to get better in. Like, I started writng in 2013, and oh my LORD was that first story bad. Even five years later, I still don't feel confident in writing a stand-alone novel.
