Ok, so I'm about 30k words in, and I'm just now realizing this story has been a drama instead of action/adventure, like I usually strive for. So now that presents me with a few questions...
Without the action, is this story still entertaining?
Do I need to try and rewrite and create more action?
Or, do I abandon this story completely?
I intend for a number of action sequences to come up, but is that too little, too late? Typically my stories have been 40-50k words. Based on what I have planned, this one may be as much as 60k. That means I have half a story and it's mostly a drama, so I can have an action packed second half, but will it be enough? Questions, questions, and a lack of answers. Perhaps this is one I should have mapped out, and I would have seen this issue sooner. Hindsight and all that.
