I wrote one semi novel length action secret agent story, but that was in 7th grade... I was kinda disappointed, I used all my notebooks and had to kill the good ending I had planned because I had three pages to write the last two chapters. It ruined the whole story because of that and I didn't even bother looking for a publisher. It's okay though. I like my new story better.

If you really like that old story, don't just drop it. Go back and re-work that ending and make it the way you want.

It was also about something copywrited, I forgot to add that tidbit. I'd have to get permission from the people that own the idea anyway.

Copyright law doesn't apply to ideas; only exact writings.

no, I mean it was a published and copywritten thing. Not just an Idea. It really had no story so I gave it one, but If i published it, it'd be copyright infringement

Bummer.

k, I'm about halfway done with chapter 3. I've got a bit of writers block, but I'm gonna go back and rewrite some parts. I get the feeling that my story is slowly losing its flash and grip, but I'll work on that. This'll be a short story of only about 10-15 chapters and not a novel.
