The Runaways Reborn?

     Okay,  I know I ended this book not too long ago, and I might just be running back and forth, but I'm thinking about starting it up again.

     Why?  It started with a thought.  A little quote that I thought would be good to put in a book.  Problem is, it doesn't work for the book I am currently working on.  Also, because of this little quote, I've thought of a new idea behind The Runaways.

     If I do indeed start this book up again, I am going to be changing A LOT.
     First off:  The strange werewolf and vampire things are going.  As much as I find these creatures interesting, in the end it would just turn into another book where people are reminded of Twilight, and in all honesty, we have enough of those.  If I do have anything supernatural in it, I might add some magic.  Most likely not anything too crazy, though.
     Second:  I might change the time period of this.  Modern would be okay, but I've been thinking it might be more interesting if it was more Medieval.  No matter how many times you think about it, swords, bows and arrows are just beautiful.  Not to mention all the other wonderful things of that time period.  I do not know a single person who thinks that the Medieval times were idiotic.
     Third:  It will need a new name.  The Runaways is an OKAY name, but I don't think an OKAY name is going to work.

    So, that's most of the main things I'd be changing.  For those of you who are curious about the thought I had, here it is:

    "Sometimes I close my eyes and imagine things.  Things like 'What if he came back?' 'What if people liked me?'  I imagine that, and I end up feeling sad.  Because just for a moment, I really believe it was all true."

    That would be Grace saying that, I think.  I'm rather found of the quote, though I have no idea if it is any good.

    So, my question is, do any of you have an opinion on this?  Do you want me to start the book up again?  I'm just a little curious, but I'd love to hear people's opinions.

    I will not, however, be dropping the book I am currently working on.  I love it too much to let it die.

   That is all I have to say...  So yeah, thank you to those who share their opinions.  Hope to give you all a update soon!

  1. I... well, I was going to say I LOVE IT, but I've been trying not to say love except when I really mean 'love'... so, I think this is AMAZING sounding! And I like the quote!
    I think you SHOULD do it, and I like your editations!
