Script Frenzy: I changed my mind.

The thought of writing about a war between two sets of numinous beings (and having to think of a reason for them to even meet each other, much less go to war) was just too daunting for me. I also thought that plotline would make my play way too complicated, so I changed it for a simpler one that would be easier to stage.

The new plotline is this: Keria is still sent into a fictional re-creation of ancient Greece and still has to play the role of a minor member of the pantheon, but there is no war. Instead, there is a poet trying to write an epic tale of the deeds of men and gods, and it's Keria's job to inspire him and keep him on track... but it's really hard to do that when said gods keep popping up to complain about how they're being portrayed. This is a problem for two reasons: One, nobody likes to be told how they should do things when they're working on a creative project, and two, Keria's ideas about how to be a good Muse, i.e., how to have a good relationship with one's Writer, are different from those of the other Muses, because the thinking on that has changed a lot between the age of ancient Greece and the present.

I am so looking forward to this. :-)
