just kidding around
maybe base something on real life, but twist and turn it? idk…
sorry alcove…
hmmm
what do u wanna write??? like fantasy, historical fiction??? romance…idk what ideas i should supply…
hmmm
dont know bout sci fi, but i do know about fantasy
create your own world…your own character
remember alcove…you cannot find inspiration…inspiration finds you. do not go looking for ideas just let them come
good luck

How about a sci-fi story that is about a world that is in game but the people in that world are unaware of that fact.
thanks moon break
and thanks dave, but i’ve kinda seen that one before and i want to be original
who about a story that has dragons that can fly in space and fight traditional space vehicles.
Make a short little story about a normal human who’s given not-so-normal powers, and abuses them.
But don’t make him evil. Make him strange, mysterious. Reveal more about him through what he does to people. Make him help some people and kill others- really work with the character.
I’m working on that kind of story myself.
k that’s kinda cool.
had an idea awhile back about a world that was kinda like a store house and mixing pot for all our worlds history (even aliens and bigfoot n stuff) and a sort of police force that has to keep it all in line and keep them from slipping into our world and turning into monsters. it also explains where flying saucers n ghost come from.
too weird maybe? came to me in a dream lol.
Not too weird. You go make it a dang reality!
The other book I’m working on came to me in a dream as well, actually. They can be very inspiring, eh?
yeah,even my nightmares hav given me good elements for books and characters that aren’t scary at all. weird how that works sometimes
Oh yeah, I hear ya.
One of the many wonders of dreams.
Find something you can relate to and run with it. Some theme or idea and concern. Just because someone has done a similar story to the one you may be thinking about, does not mean that you can’t do it better. I find the more personal you make it ( something that means something to you in any way shape or form) the better the result, the more passion is behind the work and the more you want it to be something great. I have an idea, but I am sorry .. it is something I work on every now and again, so can’t give it up ;) . Takes alot of effort, but just keep it up and it will unwrap itself, you seem to have the mind for it, just see where some ideas take you and pick one that gives you that gut feeling.
thanks remeberpoe, that’s good advice
there’s this website called seventh sactum that has a bunch of story, character, and name generators that i’ve gotten a lot of cool ideas from too and some of them are actually stuff I can relate to even if most of it is pretty random
Think about the subject you want write about. Write that subject down on a piece of paper. Circle it. Draw four lines from the circle, then draw circles at the end of those lines. Concentrate on the word you wrote and circled. What does that word make you feel? What does it mean to you? What pictures flash through your mind? Whatever pops into your mind, start filling in the empty circles with those things, and so on… This is a kind of writing exercise specifically directed at getting through a block. I have used it before, and it has helped.
idk i’ve been looking all over google for that, too. just really wanna write a book!!!!
