I had a great idea for a book only to watch momento and see it stolen 18 years in advance.
1st and last original idea.

I got an idea for a short novel about someone getting fired and searching for hope in life (I know, it's pretty original). But I want to parallel it with Jesus being dead for 3 days as well as touch on how the world feels like we are shoved out into an unfeeling society straight from the womb. I also want it to touch on some topics about abortion. I got a general plot figured out with the general themes loosely in place but i dont want u fucks stealing it.

No ideas are real. Just make the forces different. You could replace my story with like Trojans and make it land based.

yeah and it all centers around this one scene where he's sitting on the bus and he sees this beautiful white city that fills him with warmth. He goes back but he can't ever find it. I want to capture that feeling of the "being on the wrong timeline" meme. People 100 years ago were hoping we'd live in a utopian society by now, and all it has done is made things worse. :(

I think that's good, though you'd have to be unique in writing style to make it have an effect now. Look at cyberpunk or any of the general nihilism. Make the writing exceptional during those scenes.

I've been writing a story written with the direction style of a Tarantino film. It's all in third person, but switches every chapter. Some points of view it routinely switches back to, others never get a second chapter.

I would say the plot, but the whole idea is that every person has their own objectives that just so happen to tie into others' at some point or another. It involves a lot of gangs, drug and weapon selling, and how getting involved with that can affect different people's lives depending on both how involved they are and at what point in their life they are.

It's a pretty ballsy project with how deep I'm trying to flesh out the 40+ (main and side) characters and the several different plots I got so far, but it's a lot of fun to write and brainstorm about.
