You know how you always get these general ideas for stories so you write them down and store them away, but you never end up being able to use them? Well, here's the place to post (and find) them. Here are a couple of really lame, really random ones copied and pasted from my forum that I posted there eons ago.
I once wrote a story that didn't make much sense in like seventh grade, and I think yall can tweak up the ideas and write your own version, and make it great. I'll try not to go into too much detail because the plot itself doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Okay, there's like this girl who relives the same day every day; the day of her mother's funeral. But she doesn't know she's reliving it every day, so she goes through the heartache all the time. Well, this day it's different; she goes back into the realm of the living in her dream and discovers what really happened. She was murdered with/after her mom and buried under the floorboards of her house. So she gets a plan to get in touch with her sister while she dreams, and she has to get her point across before she wakes up and loses this chance possibly forever. Anyway, her sister finally gets it and looks under the floorboards to see the rotten body, and she takes care of it with the police, making up some lame excuse that they buy (I can't remember it right now), and she thinks she hears the wind whisper, "Thank you." or something like that. Just be glad I didn't go into detail... For more, read the lame story: www.fictionpress.com/read.php?storyid=1566310
Okay, the story's from the perspective of the main character's best friend looking back on the adventure. This person doesn't get much attention or anything, but he/she tags along and witnesses everything that happens to the hero and other characters. Okay, the main character lives in the country in front of a forest and hears a noise or something one night and goes into the forest with the friend to investigate, and they find a group of fairies argueing loudly, secluding by a bunch of bushes. They are worried about the princess, who was captured by goblins. Then they discover the two humans and shrink them so they can't run off telling of their culture. Then the two gather a couple of clues and escape. They go to find the princess, and find her hiding in a cave or something (you can be more clever about this, if you wish). Then she says she ran away because she would be queen soon (16th birthday), and to be a fairie queen means to be frozen in the "town square" of fairies until the new queen is ready, and the new queen is a fairie born out of the Sacred Goblet every 100 years. The queen is frozen in the town square, but she is completely alive, not able to move or talk or anything, and the princess is scared because it sounds like torture. The reason the fairies do this is because having a sort of sacrificial queen looking over the city puts up a protective barrier around it so the goblins, the fairies' natural preditors, can't get to them whilst they remain in the city. Every once and a while, of course, one will have to stray and not be good enough at hiding and end up prey. Anyway, in the end, they study the princess's magic books and discover a way to divide the forest, goblins may only go on one side, and fairies on the other, so the problem is solved and the day is saved. Or you might go for a more depressing end.
A little girl has a magical world in her closet where she goes to play with her fairy friends. When she wants to bring in some of her human friends, all they see is a closet, and there are many things that make it seem like she's just crazy. Therefore, she's trying her best to convince people that it's really there, and yet she's still the only one who can see it. Finally, when they're just about ready to lock her up, her fairy friends tell her that there is a way to get people to see their world - fairy dust. Now she can prove to everyone that she's not crazy, and they are shocked to find that the fairies are real. However, it turns into a huge publicity stunt, and their entire world is in danger, and the girl is in impending peril as well. You decide an ending.
