I have an idea for a young adult trilogy. It's more a scifi idea and I wonder if that's something teen girls are willing to read.

It's set during a robot uprising and this girl falls in love with a robot, or maybe he's not a robot... Anyways she's the chosen one to end the root war and stuff.

Whag a dumb idea.
You'll make millions, and it'll get made into a movie.

YA romance novels should be abolished. Make them be really great friends instead. Fuck love, friendship is where it's at.

OH NO! You stole my super original idea! I've got your IP address and my lawyers will contact you soon!

You plagiarist! You indecent hack! What's the next thing you will steal from me? My awesome idea of sexy vampires?!?! YOU FILTH!

Don't describe how anything works - just that it does - and you can get away with anything.

book 1: we find out he is a robot
book 2: we find out she is also a robot
book 3 - we find out that they're both actually human and i was just kidding earlier about them being robots

Does the robot have a long, thick probe? (Make sure it's cold and glitters.)

Good to go, publish ASAP.

Actually the girl is part robot. She has a magic chip in her brain that lets her control other robots, but she doesn't know that yet.

There's also another human dude who likes her, but he is very anti robot.

I think you should spice it up. Make the girl a robot who falls in love with a human boy.
She stares at him longingly while trying to hide from the motherframe who knows she's not rising with her bretherin... OUT OF LOVE!

I like it. Would teen girls relate to a robot pov though?

>> No.3916631

It should be the boy robot that falls in love with the human boy at first, and at first she's all ~tsundere~ and wierded out but she falls in love with him too. Girls would much rather read a book about the man trying to serenade the girl at first.

Don't have to. The angst provided would be enough.

he should be killed brutally by a gang of well-endowed robots to show that racism is bad

Teenage girls want to be pampered and feel special and wanted. I'm not even trying to be misogynist, just describing the general mindset of the target audience OP is writing for.

I guess. I never got it. I guess I liked a few girly books, but the best books were always about women being awesome, not women falling in love. Pierce is so much better than Meyer it's not even funny, but she never got the attention she deserved. About women fighting for what they want- you know, independence.
You'd think that would be more important, but whatever.

I'm on Goodreads looking up YA books. It seems like everyone of them has a movie deal or some studios interested.

Can't be that hard to shit out some YA series and make millions.

Even in fiction, even the "noble" women are just selfish self-serving creatures.
