I write fiction and I mainly write about realistic-fiction, aiming towards teenagers, and young love and romance. I don't know if that helps any of you, but I hope it does!

A couple with albinism is formed. They have to overcome specific challenges, sort of a rough Romeo and Juliet thing. Plus, it all takes place in Florida (read some of Carl Hiaasen's stuff, and you'll understand what I mean).
My email is just the way it's spelled here @yahoo.com

Hello their...whoever "you" may be!...I am myself a "writer" and I understand exactly what you're facing and dealing with. I need to ask you this question: Are you presently in a writers "school" of any kind? They can generally help you in finding new ideas for the plotting of stories. Do you write fiction or non-fiction? I myself write non-fiction, and therefore it's eaier (at least to me) to find the things I want to write about. All writers face writers' block a number of times in their career as a writer...no matter what type of writer you may be. Just relax and carry at all times a pen and a small notebook that you can fit into your pocket...and when ideas or actual events that take place around you, record EVERYTHING...because you never know where your next idea for writing a story is going to come from. Writers' block comes...and Writers' block will go, time and time again. It's a handicap that every writer is subject to. Be patient with yourself...because if you are a true writer with the spirit of a writer within you, another story will find its way to you or you to the story. I hope this helps you a little.

Arghhhhh! You only want a plot, beginning, characters and personalities? Oh please!
If you really want some thought starters, click on the family relationships site. There are enough plots in there for dozens of books, and some are in the age group you write for. But you and I both know that one writer can't work successfully with another writer's brainstorm. Look what happened when they tried to write a sequel to Margaret Mitchell's Gone With The Wind!

The best stories are written within a context with which the author is most familiar. Write a teenage romance about you and Will, but change your names. Set it around dancing, lacrosse, or any other thing you like. This will keep your interest level up and you'll come off as an expert in your area (makes for a more believable story).

I gift to you my dungeon and dragon character...
The hedgewitch lifted her staff and stepped along the muddy spring road.
A shepherd in new dyed blue trousers, held up his nose and cursed her as she trod by.
All the villagers were glad enough to see her when she arrived last winter. They wanted her then with their coughs and sneezes and cold bit fingers. Bargained and begged for her brews and medicines. Thanked her too when fevers broke and their dear hearts were restored to the hearth fires. And now they wanted her gone. It was the shepherd's fault . Always whining about the dire wolves raiding the flock and the thick sheep ticks sucking the blood life from the new lambs.
He had whined and whined , maggie will you no help? until she mixed him a garlicky sheep dip. It was a good brew too.
No wolf, nor tick or any sensible thing would now come willingly near the smelly flocks. The blue coloring left on the wool by the dip was rather pretty she thought. The shepherd watched as she walked. He would have set the dogs on her but they like wolves were sensible things and would now not come willingly near him and his flock .

Alright here's something that you could go on if you're teen oriented. It's an idea I've never really fully shaped but you might be able to.
Late1950's America, WASP family's teenage daughter suddenly becomes fully engrossed in bellydancing. There are so many directions you could go, but it's the basic conflict of rebeling against authority with something they don't understand. The girl's friends could either turn on her or support her. (Or both, depends on the friends) Do a bit of research on fashions and music of the era and of course, belly dancing. You could do anything you want with this, shape it to your will and go for it!

Read a news story or a features story. Go read People Magazine and find the most sizzling stories and base yours on that.
What inspires you? A song? A sitcom on TV? Characters and plots are everywhere, it's about zeroing in on one.
Best of luck,

The demise of the world is a result of pokemon brainwashing our children, I mean seriously, do you know of any adults that actually pay attention to all of that stuff, yet, all of our children know about it in great detail.
