{ ＩＮＫＬＩＮＧＳ v.4 } A Thread For Writers

[Aliria]

I actually had this idea like a year ago, but it popped back into my mind and I think I could go somewhere good with it, even if I have just about nothing planned out so far.

The main character is a teenage selkie, who gets angry at her parents over some small issue, travels to land, and ends up losing her sealskin and being stuck as a human.

I think something bad is going to happen to the other selkies, and she's going to have to help as a human. I also might set it in modern times, and have the 'something bad' was an oil spill or something.

I suppose I'll need to do a lot of research on seals and selkie mythology, whatever I do.

Aliria-
I think that's a really cool idea and you should definitely try and flow with it! I haven't heard of many mythological stories where the hero/heroine is a human!

Melon-
I hate when that happens....I have so many ideas for so many stories, but none of them create any kind of plot line that isn't a pile of wasted space

@Aliria
That sounds like a wonderful idea! I've always loved the mythology of the selkie, and would totally read that! I say you should go for it.

@watermelon.
Ugh, I feel ya. I have that sometimes, too. Where I get this really good idea, or get really inspired, but I'm like "No, no, it's too cliche." or "No, it's been way too overused." I actually got inspired to write something around fairy tales in the modern day, but we all know how overused that is. I actually spent two or so days focusing on nothing but it. Trying my hardest to make it different. But I couldn't, so I eventually lost my inspiration.
My advice; do it, but don't focus too hard on it. Or else you could lose the inspiration for it.

Oh yeah, I have a little story to pitch to ya'll. It's based on FNaF and will be posted on my Wattpad. Hopefully part by part, too. Not the entire thing being thrown in at once. Here's the summary/description. It's also currently in the works right now, I'm just posting this to see if anyone is interested.

Thirty years since Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza closed its doors for good, Mike Schmidt
thought the terrors were behind him. Now happily married and with two teenage daughters, and a full-time game designer, his life is pretty great. Minus the few nightmares he still suffers from.
That is when he gets a call from a guy who is bringing back the horrors of Freddy Fazbear’s as a horror attraction. He doesn’t take the job at first, but after a specific nightmare, he reluctantly takes it. All was going well until they find a real animatronic.
Now thrust back into the nightmare of Freddy Fazbear’s, and with a family who would be hopeless if he were to die, what will he do? Leave the Godforsaken place, or find out the truth behind the nightmare?

ya could always create your own mythology as well

Most inkling wolves are loving and caring but there can always be a mishap with their attitude.
