transition

I am in the midst of what I think is the second chapter. I am ready to make a shift in the story but I feel like maybe this chapter should be longer. I would assume if the scene shifts so would the chapter.

I have two possible ways for the story to go next and that debate is holding me back at the moment. Both directions will be part of the story. I guess I could write them both in different documents and see what fits best.

Each direction involves introducing 2 new characters. I have a general idea who they are but I have some debates. I don't know if I should be hashing them out more in my head or see where they take me as I start writing.
