Have three competing novel ideas and I'm paralysed about which to start next.

1. Literary dystopian
2. YA fantasy - contemporary
3. YA fantasy - ancient world

All else being equal, which one would you prefer to read?

That's an interesting approach, I might try it, thanks!

I usually don't start writing until I have a full scene-by-scene outline which is pretty much the opposite of the above, but it might get the juices flowing enough to figure out what I want to do.

You could write a sentence about each idea, and then a paragraph and then design characters etc. 

At some point you will feel a natural gravity towards that thing that you want to pursue next.

the one about the ancient world sounds fascinating. Which part of the ancient world is it? Greek/Roman? Or more Oriental?
