Thanks, yeah, there are several characters who are 50 + thousands of years old, tanks for all your help. :-)

Author Craft / trying to write the story arc still... need help
« on: August 21, 2015, 04:54:09 PM »
Hello,
I have gone back through all of Jim's live journal articles on how to get started (LOVE Them!), but here is my problem. I have written out tons of material, on every detail of the world, culture, different races, histories, and so on. Built a huge 3d model of the world. I even wrote a story a story question. However, my story takes place over 50,000 years...so the story question is really broad due to time. Do I need to admit that I really have a series in mind or can I somehow fit this all into 1 novel? Guess I could write out different story arcs and see if that answers my question?
Also, how does one get help or ask for help without sharing too much where the idea could be stolen? Any suggestions here?
I've had this story in my head for years, started working on it back in 2006. Stopped, now I have picked it back up and my head has kept adding too the story.
Thanx to anyone who responds.
