Ideas begin to take shape.
This module looks at elements of your idea that you will need to make choices on very early on, before you can start the process of execution. What genre are you writing in and what does that mean for your idea? How long is your story? What media are you going to be telling it in?

Recommended Texts
These are some other texts that I think are useful.

Length and form
