I've been pretty much circling around an idea for about twenty-four hours right now, picking at it and looking up the genre and scratching my head and whining and complaining to myself the whole time. My mother noticed and said, very patiently, "You know you can do it, whatever you're thinking about right now."
A couple hours ago, it came to me. A simple, mystifying statement. A fourteen-word statement that completely explains the idea. A cause and effect statement.
I got my idea about a month ago after I saw a picture on DeviantArt. So I now have my title, a cover, a plot, and my main two characters (James Bond and James Bond. Yes). All I need now is the ideas and the outline.
I may have hit on my project for November.

Being said, I've got a bit of work ahead of me.
Re: I may have hit on my project for November.
Ooo. Sounds intriguing. Do you mind sharing the statement since you've drawn me in already?
Lol!

"If Brian Boru had won the Battle of Clontarf, Mary Tudor would have had a happy ending."
I've got some idea of how that happy ending will come about, but it'll take a lof of research and suspension of disbelief, methinks.
Re: I may have hit on my project for November.
Yes. Don't just tease us with it. Let us know what that statement is.
Re: I may have hit on my project for November.
Intriguing. That could certainly change history in exciting ways.
Re: I may have hit on my project for November.
Awesome! Looks like quite a cool conceptual line.
