Chances, Changes and Choices

Hmm...I wonder what I will write about. Would it be about the wonderful experience I had during our Romance Writing Workshop or about the changes I made with Rob?
Oh well, Chances first.
I was very blessed to be given the chance to be a part of Precious Pages Summer Romance Writing Workshop. I met new friends, authors and learned a lot about romance writing. Truly, it was a one of a kind experience.
Changes? Yes, I made lots of them. I learned from the workshop that we need to use interesting names. Rob's name was somewhat boring so I changed it into Chase. From now on, he will be Chase for me. HE liked it and my best friend liked it too.
I also came to a point where I need to make choices. To wait for RIMS update or go ahead with Chase's story which a sequel to RIMS. I never had the gift of Waiting. Yes, I consider it a gift because for me, it's a rare trait. Not everyone has the courage to wait. I never had.
I also had another dilemma. While here in Makati, I sort of came accross an idea of a romantic plot. I was inspired to draft the outline and everything is ready. It's about Marco and Jannah's story. About strangers who became bestfriends to lovers. It's a sequel to Meant To Be My Hero. Marco was the keyboard player in Southern Fever band.
And on the last day of our workshop, my groupmates decided that it would be best if all of us would write stories that are interrelated. It was then when Abrenigo "Ego" Montalban was conceived. I adapted his traits from the movie we watched during the workshop entitled Rattatoule (if my spelling is correct). There are seven of us who would be writing about an family of resto owners.
Anyway, I haven't made the decision about who I should write first. All of their outlines are ready and waiting for my pick. Lord! Help po!
