Open Question: What do you think of my idea for a story?
The genre is fantasy, but it’s not a kids book and it doesn’t involve some flimsy love triangle between a human, vampire and werewolf. It’s aimed more at teens as the feel I’m going for is dark fantasy.
Here’s the plot.
Lucy’s dad is abusive towards his wife (Lucy’s mother) until eventually she runs away, leaving behind Lucy and her baby brother Charlie. Lucy becomes the main care taker or the house and Charlie. Her father turn his abuse to her. She harbours immense hate for her mother, but at the same time idolises her for having the courage to get away from such a horrible place. When Lucy’s dad becomes violent towards the baby, Lucy has had enough, and packs up their stuff and suns away. She heads out in the woods behind her home with no idea where she’s going when a scraggly looking boy jumps out at them, scaring them. His name is Rowan and he’s run away too. He says he is the baby in a family of 11 children and nobody cares about him. Together they continue walking until they reach a log that blocks their path. They climb over it and although they are still in the woods, they look different. Somehow darker and all the trees look like they twist in even weirder ways.
*The plot gets a little mor vague from here on in, as I’ve only fully planned out the first part*
Basically, they’ve entered a magic realm, full of darkness and evil. The good characters of the land have been overtaken by an Evil Fairy Queen who came into the realm a few years ago. The evil fairy queen has small and withered wings that cannot fly, so she rides a broom, like a witch. She has turned all the good creatures (faires, goblins, wizards etc) into slaves. She has cut them off from all their wealth and had some locked up. When Lucy, Rowan and Charlie arrive, the creatures are convinced they’ve been sent to save their realm and get rid of the evil fairy queen. So they take on the quest. They meet a lot of obstacles and help along the way. In the end they defeat the evil queen by subduing her with music and giving her back her own heart, which she kept in a glass case. It turns out that the evil fairy queen is really Lucy’s mother. She didn’t abandon her children at all. One night she just had to get out of the house for a bit and wound up in the magic realm. Once you enter the realm, you become either good or bad, there’s nothing in between. What’s in your heart is brought to the surface. Lucy’s Mum’s heart was so black and full of hate (due to her abuse) at the time that as soon as she entered the realm, she turned evil. Lucy and Charlie stay in the realm to live with their mum, the GOOD fairy queen now. Rowan goes home to his family. After seeing the horrible way the creatures in the realm were treated, he decided his family wasn’t so bad.
That’s it basically. Sorry it’s so long. I’d love to hear what you thought of it. Also, names are just temporary at the moment – if you have any ideas, let me know. Thanks for all your answers.
@ AnteSavant: The entrance to the magic realm is not that far into the woods. Lucy and Charlie have not gone very far when Rowan joins them, and after that they don’t walk very long before they reach the log. Lucy’s mother went into the woods to hide from her husband who was really angry. He is standing at the back gate screaming at her. She was crying and ran. She planned to go back after he’d gone to bed.
Resolved Question: Do you think I squandered my $18 Million (like my mom says) or was the spending justified?
Strictly as a business investment, my neighber Kyle and I decided to purchase 500,312 giant black double-headed dongs/dildos (Actually I put way more $ in more money than Kyle did). Anyway we had an ingenious plan for distributing them to nasty housewives all over the globe and we were going to steal their contact information from when they logged on to our site, and use the info to go to their houses and bang them all. (since they obviously would be aching for the taking and it should be easy to tbang them and then talk them into buying another dong for a friend, at which point we would up the price to $122.00 each and make a fortune. But Kyle backed out at the last minute so now I am sitting on half a million dongs and I can’t cover the transportation and we had already sold 90,000 of them before I could shut off the website and but we didn’t realize Fedex wouldn’t handle the mailing and now I have to research each individual address and complete the paperwork on the remaining 88,981 dongs all by myself. Do you think this was a sound investment, considering I did earn $200k of total revenue in the first year?
Resolved Question: my friends suck, what should i do?
recently ive noticed a basic downturn in my so called friends in the last year, they used to want to hang out all the time and stuff like that but now not so much. my used to be best friend has replaced my for a girl i absolutley cant stand. the only time shell really talk to me is when she isnt here and when she just wants to brag about something. i loved the old her but shes long gone. my other friends, i no longer hav a best friend, arnt really the lets go to the movies or hang out at so and so’s house. nope there bumps on a log i guess you could say.
its driving me insane how much we never hang out except for at school. ive talked to some of them but and they say ok well do sumthin, a plan that has never gone through. getting new friends in college is the only thing i have to look foward i guess
any ideas for the meantime
