Wondering which idea is the one to run with, or how to decide? Preparing for the launch of our new Premium Member course, <a href=\"https:\/\/jerichowriters.com\/write-with-jericho-video-course\/\"><strong>Write With Jericho<\/strong><\/a>, has got me thinking about this very topic. What do you do when you have way too many ideas bouncing around in your brain? And what if you can&#8217;t even decide which genre to dive into? If this sounds familiar, don&#8217;t panic &#8211; I&#8217;ve got you covered. Let&#8217;s figure it out together. (And don&#8217;t forget &#8211; Write With Jericho is for Premium Members only, so be sure to <a href=\"https:\/\/jerichowriters.com\/join-us\/\"><strong>join us<\/strong><\/a> to access this course! We&#8217;ll be learning how to craft the perfect scene, so you&#8217;ll be able to approach any story idea with confidence.)\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>1. Start with what excites you most&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you have too many ideas, start by asking yourself: which one makes you feel the most excited? Which idea has you daydreaming about characters or imagining epic plot twists? Sit with the ideas for a few days or weeks. If one idea gives you that little spark of joy and you find yourself constantly thinking about it, run with it. Writing a book is not easy. If the idea doesn\u2019t make you bounce in your seat a little bit, it\u2019s probably not going to be an idea you\u2019ll want to sit with for 80k plus words and read and edit again&#8230; and again&#8230; and again. Excitement is the fuel that will keep you going.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pro Tip: If you\u2019re excited about it, chances are your readers will be too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>2. Create a \u201cBattle Royale\u201d of ideas&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take all your ideas and pit them against each other. Write a quick elevator pitch for each one and see which stands out. When I say elevator pitch, I don\u2019t mean the kind you\u2019d include on a query letter. I mean the quick, dirty kind that you stick on a post-it note or scribble in the middle of the night. Take a look at this <a href=\"https:\/\/event.webinarjam.com\/register\/475\/m0xr4b99\">masterclass<\/a> from Harry Bingham if you\u2019re unsure how to do this<strong>.<\/strong> If you\u2019re torn between a thriller about a missing heirloom and a romantic comedy set in a flower shop, ask yourself: which feels fresher? Which would you rather spend months (or years) writing?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>3. Test drive your ideas&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t have to commit right away. Write a short story, an opening chapter, or even just a scene for a few of your favourite ideas. Why not use <a href=\"https:\/\/jerichowriters.com\/write-with-jericho-video-course\/\">Write With Jericho<\/a>, where we\u2019re going to be writing a scene together, to try out your idea? As a Premium Member, you\u2019ll have access to the replays for as long as you\u2019re a member, so if it doesn\u2019t work out you can always take the course again with a different idea. This process can help you see which one feels the most natural to write and has the most potential for growth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>4. Combine ideas&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Who says you have to choose just one? Sometimes the best stories come from blending two seemingly unrelated ideas. For example, your dystopian sci-fi concept could pair perfectly with your love for cozy mysteries. Suddenly, you\u2019re writing about a sleuth solving crimes on a spaceship. Genre mashups can be magical \u2013 and extremely sought after by agents and publishers if they\u2019re done well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>5. Explore your genre dilemma&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can\u2019t decide which genre to write, think about:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What you love to read? The genre you enjoy most as a reader might be the one you\u2019ll enjoy writing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your natural strengths: Are you great at building suspense? Maybe thrillers are your calling. Do you write snappy dialogue? Consider comedy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What scares you a little: The genre that intimidates you might be the one that helps you grow the most as a writer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>6. Look at the long game&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask yourself: which genre do you see yourself sticking with for multiple books? If you\u2019re hoping to build a career, it helps to establish yourself in a particular niche. That doesn\u2019t mean you can never branch out, but if a publisher is considering offering you a book deal, they\u2019ll want to know that you can produce multiple books in the same genre that will appeal to the same readers again and again. When I wrote my first novel, which was a sci-fi, this is exactly why I never queried it. I couldn\u2019t see myself as a sci-fi writer. I didn\u2019t think I could write another book in the genre, or at least, not multiple books. However, I could see myself writing lots of thrillers, so I decided to do that instead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>7. Consult your characters&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes it\u2019s the characters, not the plot, that can help you decide. Think about the people in your ideas. Which characters feel the most real or compelling? Which ones are clamoring the loudest for their story to be told? Follow their lead.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>8. Set aside market pressure&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s easy to get caught up in what\u2019s trending. While it\u2019s good to be aware of the market, trying to chase trends can stifle your creativity. It\u2019s also a bit pointless. What\u2019s trending today probably won\u2019t be next year, so by the time you\u2019ve written the book, edited the book, and started to query, it\u2019s likely to no longer be in demand. Even worse \u2013 the market will probably be over-saturated by that point and you\u2019ll be competing with writers who got there quicker than you. Instead, focus on writing what you\u2019re passionate about. Trends come and go, but a story you love will always have value.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>9. Flip a coin (seriously)&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re truly stuck, grab a coin. Assign an idea or genre to each side and flip. You\u2019ll either:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get your answer, or&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Realize as the coin is mid-air which one you\u2019re secretly rooting for.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>10. Remember to have fun&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Writing should be fun! Yes, it\u2019s hard work, but it\u2019s also your chance to create a world, fall in love with your characters, and tell a story only you can tell. Don\u2019t stress about choosing the \u201cright\u201d idea. Whatever you write, it will be uniquely yours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, take a deep breath, pick an idea (or two!), and start typing. You\u2019ve got this!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t forget to join us as a Premium Member to take part in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/jerichowriters.com\/write-with-jericho-video-course\/\">Write With Jericho<\/a><\/strong>.
