I've been nursing this story idea for nearly 30k words now, and I think it's time to pull the plug. Not scrap it all together--just give it a break. This happens sometimes. I believe that the overall concept, or idea, for the story is still good, but something is just a little off on this draft. Maybe it's told from the wrong point of view, or maybe the main character just isn't too interesting--I'll figure it out. But there's not sense in continuing to beat a dead horse.
I'll toss this idea to the side for a few weeks and do something else. Maybe I'll revisit, maybe I won't. Time will tell.
