Now to write the 22-minute pilot and the Long Awaited Feature-Length Screenplay TM.
Darkshore:
I've just started writing again after a hectic end to my college semester and I've hit a brick wall. I'd joined a writing group and received a lot of lovely feedback from the members, but one of them hit on something that really slapped me into reality. My novel is very similar to DF. I had intended it to be alike, but different, I mean there are a lot of novels with a P.I. for a MC right? But while they loved the voice they said that the fact that he's a P.I., broke, and involved with the Fae might be too close for comfort. Then the idiocy of my Bob-like character, a ghost that speaks through a radio, really hit me as just too much. I'm not sure if I'm worried over nothing or if I should work on changing these similarities asap. The story itself is certainly different and by the end my MC isn't even a P.I. anymore, but the beginning needs to bring in the readers.

I say finish it as is. Of course that depends how far you are into the word count. But honestly, I wouldn't let others stop you. Pump out the product. You can always go back and edit some of the more egregious stuff out if its truely full of the suckage.
Pearls and Swine. Pearls and Swine.
My 2 cents anyways.
don't let anything stop you,
