"When crafting a novel, the first thing you need to know is what type of story you are telling. Most writers begin with ideas on the general themes and events that will take place; but eventually you will want to refine this general idea into something specific. Think of this step as a creative concept for your novel—the step by which you will note down the details that will provide inspiration for your plot outline, your character designs, and the nature of your world. Today I'm going to provide some questions to help you narrow down the type of story that you want to create, moving from broad generalization to more detailed specifics."-JosephBlakeParker

Questions 1: What is the genre of your novel?
As of now, I want my novel to be a Fantasy Sci-fi novel which can appeal to all ages with a hint of comedy here and there as well as the very rare chemistry and romance between my two main characters: The Main Character and the Main Hero. Though it will carry bits and pieces of many genres, the main genres I will be working with are Fantasy and Sci-fi where their real world will be Sci-fi and their online world will be fantasy. It's a work in progress.

Question 2: What is the intensity of your novel?
Low Fantasy Scifi meant to amuse many demographics and include universal human experiences that can be enjoyed by people of almost any culture, interest, and education level.

Question 3: What is the nature of the conflict in your story?
Character A's main conflict is her strict routine type of lifestyle. It will later escalate to her lack of relationship or even knowledge of her parents and finally the choice of saving the world or saving her parents.

Question 4: What are you trying to accomplish with your story?
How do you want your novel to affect your reader? I want to create hope, to entertain, and to help readers escape the drudgery of the real world. But most of all, to give readers someone to be there for them.

Question 5: Are you writing Comedy or a Tragedy?
It will be a tragedy. I want readers to feel empathy for the characters and to likewise connect to them.
