Where to start?

Currently considering if going for a new scene is going to effect my work.

At the moment I have been looking at ''Ashputtle' with a 20's theme. I chose to look at the scene where Ashputtle tries on the bloody shoe.  However I am not particularly passionate about this story, nor the Grimm Fairy Tales in general. This I fear, will lead me to put off work as much as possible. It will, on the other hand, mean I will not have to do so much background work.

So, I'm going to have a read of 'His Dark Materials' trilogy, and I hope I will be able to find something inspiring from there. I have not read the books yet, but from the many crossovers I have read recently, it appears to be an interesting concept if nothing else.

If this fails to inspire, I may have to go with 'Sherlock Holmes', which has been something of an obsession of mine since the BBC released 'Sherlock', which is a perfect example of a modern twist on a book.
