[stylist] story questions

[Barbara HAMMEL]

Okay, I've figured out a little blurb for the main plot of this story.
One question I can think of, because IDON'T get overwhelmed by numbers of characters in a story -- how many characters  would overwhelm the average story reader? 
I think for me, the best way to approach this story is to plan much of it out -- characters, the subplots, whose bad and whose good, who knew each other before the story starts and how ... essentially writing mini stories or summaries of what want to see happen.
