The same thing happened to me (a small idea runs off and grows into an epic). I ended up spending time creating the fictional world, though. In fact I'm still working on it, but I've been slow. I think your story would benefit greatly from having a well defined fictional setting. When you give places names and history, your story suddenly becomes more alive and believable. I wouldn't say its necessary to devote so much time to creating a world, but it certainly makes the story richer. |
