Despite the name, Ask The Tropers isn't the place for something like this. The Writer's Block Conversations and World Building Conversations might be better suited to what you're hoping to find out.
Probably the former more than the latter.
So I'm planning on starting to write a diary novel series chronicling the change from his last year in middle school to his last year in high school. I'm planning on writing about 5 books, maybe more, to show his experiences. I like to describe my first draft as Freaks and Geeks meets the Catcher in the Rye meets Diary of a W Impy Kid. I'd like to develop a separate plot in each on of the novels, but since the books are supposed to take place over a single school year, I'm wondering if it'll be boring to develop one plot, in the course of a year, through journal entries. Are there any limitations, and ways to make it not suck that I should consider?
