Well, I know the contest already ended, but I have a great story idea. You could write about kids going to space, but it is 100 years ago in India. You can build on that idea if you want. I think it would be cool if you wrote it, but made it for kids to read also.
ReplyDeleteindia is famous for its treasure trove of myths and legends about vampires right? you should make a story about demonic creatures and a hero or something..christopher pike assimilated the concept of indian vampire origins in his novels "The Last Vampire" saga...good luck man!
ReplyDelete@zack - Congratulations. You are the winner for May 2012.
ReplyDeleteAnd maybe because it is Midsummer Month, maybe because I'm looking for an intervention myself, maybe because I've always believed in magick, maybe because we never quit hoping for a miracle... I'd like to read a story about one of those times when the fine line between dust and magick blurs and we are left wondering if the person we last met was just another person walking her own thorny path or was she an angel? - Remember the series 'Touched By An Angel'?
