I decided today during my outline session that I'd use three different storylines, and merge them later. I think this is the real practical beauty of outlining, because if it sucks, you can do a very early revision, and get it to slow right from the start.
I'm getting a little fantasy island vibe though. I'm hoping to cut it with enough futurism and sci-fi to cut the magic down later on. A girl can hope!
So far the three angles I'm thinking of are the earned, the winners, and the escapees. Very different groups, with very different stories to tell. I might add a stow away, but that might overlap with the escapees. The stow away might be where the main story is though.
