I have to say, this site is extremely helpful! Also, I have some ideas for the novel I want to write post-trilogy. Some of the basic ideas: a world of people with hypermetabolic brains that can do amazing things. This requires strict governance because of the danger, and so there is an oppressive communist-esque regime that promotes group mentality and cooperation in order to head off disagreements. But there are rebels. I don't know why this particular rebel is rebeling yet. He's incredibly selfish, yet somehow endearing. You love to hate him. He's the bad guy, and the story is going to be told entirely from his perspective, and those around him. The protagonists will be there, but we'll never get into their heads. It's all rather vague, why he is rebeling, what kinds of things he does, but he's slowly forming in my head. I think he'll prove to be a fascinating fellow.
