Re: Re: Characters want a setting change

I thought my characters would follow along my plot line nice and orderly but no, they are diving off into side plots and getting into all sorts of mischief. I guide them back on course but they keep running ahead of me telling the story their way. I've changed their setting a bit, same world but part of it in a different area and it is working much better.
