cheers, this is helpful.

Have any ideas of my guy in a mental asylum of people with eternal life and they want to die so badly it drives them crazy. Like youthful looking 600 year olds who have just lost their minds.

The term novel was quite a general term, I think most people interpreted it has a fully fledged novel. Which ever definition you put it with, It's thousands of words but it that way and it's Sunday evening.

I think we've already established the fact I'm fucked.

Good opening line or no?

Death. Why does this word plague our minds with fear?

I'm starting to write I'm just keeping the thread alive because eventually I'll post some of what I wrote.

The first thing I wrote was like cannibals in the woods and a lost lumberjack (lol) who finds a shack because he got told to go to there over the walkie talkie but then realize he got lured there.

It's fucking terrible.

This is true. I'm just at a mental block though, I've been looking for that spur that will be put me on my way.

hahaha sounds so cliche how you put it but I never actually thought of that. The end of the story could be a doctor finding him hanging or some shit and it's like wait.. but he was immortal... or was he?

bampppp

Ok I've thought of an idea what is your honest opinions.

Basically a guy in a mental hospital. The horror can come from confrontations with the other fucked up patients infected by some sort of bull shit or just going crazy and basically everyone in there has eternal life and eventually just goes crazy because they wan't to die so badly but just can't. Basically the main character is in there also but he's not crazy or is he? etc etc...

What do you think?

>>3203269
Yeah I know pretty much, but at the same time of just needing to get something done, if the thing I get done is terrible then I'm fucked regardless.

I really can't think how to start it. Like an opening line, I need something to get the ball rolling.

It probably would make a good book if done correctly, I just personally think it would fit into the horror genre .. well I wouldn't be able to make it, cheers anyway.

>>3203227
I'm not I assure you.

I'm really liking all this but how could I start it?

>>3203212
Yeah but that doesn't really help because my problem is that I'd pull it off shit.

>>3203206
Cool idea I'm liking it...

Can his recent events be cooking blue meth?

In all seriousness though, It sounds cool but I don't know how it would be "horror".
