So, I've extrapolated my idea into a full-fledged story concept. Of course, this novella will be a "prequel" of sorts, since most of my previous writing is set years after this.

I have named my protagonists, antagonist and story. This weekend will see a deep dive into the characters; adding depth with backstory, traits etc.

I do find myself emboldened with my naming strategy. Turns out Greg Rucka, (a writer I admire), used a similar tact with his recently published comic series. "Great minds..and all that jazz".

So, "House of Cards" is officially underway
