How many OCs with love interests is too much for one book?
Okay so for context, the book I mentioned that I've been really wanting to work on right now has 3 OCs.
One dates Derek
One dates Scott
One dates Liam
And I've been working on the book- making plans, getting started on chapters, making all my little photo edits
But lately, I've been REALLY tempted to add a four OC who dates Kira. I tried figuring out a way to make one of the already existing OCs date Kira at some point but with the plans I have it doesn't really fit.
So that's where a fourth OC can come in.
I feel like I can really do it without being overwhelmed. It will never be 4 OCs all at once until the last episode of season 6 and the movie.
Let's number them by story ppearance:
Derek' love interest - OC #1
Scott's love Interest - OC #2
Kira's love intrest - OC #3
Liam's love interest - OC #4
But will basically start with
Season 1&2: Two OCs at a time, OC #1 and OC #2
Season 3/4: Three OCs - OC #3 coming in during season 3a / OC #1 leaving at the end of season 4 with Derek
Season 5/majority of 6: Three OCs - OC #4 coming in in season 5A
But before I fully settle with the idea of 4 OCs, I want to make sure if you guys will like that. I will try my best to not make it seem cluttered or too complicated or overwhelming but if it seems like something that will be too much for you, I will with just 3 OCs
