Is this a good story idea to continue my story?

Question

I'm thinking for the rest of the story, have Ryan try to kill Ashley's father, as a job for the mafic that he's in that Ashley doesn't know about, have Ryan put in jail for that. Then have Ashley try to find a new father for her daughter.

Answer 2

Just a bit of advice for you. If you have any intention at all of trying to get this published professionally (aside from self published) you are destroying your chances by having it posted on the internet. More and more publishers are specifically stating that they will NOT consider any material previously posted on the internet. Why? Because the internet is a virtual smorgasbord for plagiarists. Also, many websites have fine print that gives them the rights to anything published on their site. Rather than having a legal dept sort out the mess as to who owns the story and who has submitted it elsewhere under another name, they are just rejecting them. I closed my website down long ago and refuse to publish anything here or anyplace else - even though I am asked to almost constantly. Dont do it. It will come back and bite you in the butt.

As for the idea to continue the story - it's your story and the ideas come from you - nobody else. If you are an author, you shouldnt want anyone else's ideas.

Hi, I just read your chapter one. I'd love to help you out with this story if you would like. There are just a couple of things that need to be fixed in part one. I will continue reading the rest of your story. You have a good start.
