Good Ideas For A Book?

Question

What are some good ideas for a book? I am hoping to write one, but I want something that everybody can relate to....

Answer 1

A story, whether it's a novel, short story, or screenplay, is started with some of the following -- these might help you think of ideas:

1) Premise
This is when you ask, "What would happen if?" Anything can get you started with it. The author of "Lord of the Rings" started his when he wrote about a hole in the ground on a piece of paper. He had no clue what it meant, he simply wrote it. Then he started asking "what would happen if..." something lived in it? Then it grew into "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings". Brainstorm, read the news, and start asking what if questions to develop the premise of your story.

2) Setting
You can set your story anywhere, on Mars, in the past on Earth, in the future on a starship, anywhere. Even thinking about the setting can help you to develop the premise.

3) Multiple Characters
Almost all stories contain multiple characters to play off of the values of the others. Start thinking about characters and what they want and this will also help you to develop your story. Ask lots of "what would happen if?"

4) Inciting Incident
This is where you story begins that turns your story's world upside-down and forces your character to set it straight. Then your character will begin a quest to reach an object of desire. Thinking about an inciting incident can also be your premise: "What would happen if a shark ate someone and the partially-eaten body ends up on the beach?" Jaws.

These points should help you to get started.

What pet peeve pushes your buttons?
What subjects interest you?
Why not check out the online "weird news" sites plus the Yahoo questions and answers in several categories for the demographic you're trying to reach? You're bound to come up with several ideas, then blend them together and, walla, there's your basic story.
Good luck.
