Ideas for stories?
PostPosted: Sun Mar 22, 2009 6:04 pm
I REALLY wanna make a short web comic or something. The thing is, I can draw but I'm really bad when it comes to writing. I can't focus enough to weed out garbage that is not needed in the story or keep the plot focused with so many ideas running through my head. And I'm not very good with writing dialog.
Anyway, some help would be cool. I just want something short cause I would bore myself if it was long and I got frustrated.
Some "images" I've gotten but have no idea how I would make a story out of these include: Two Gargoyles conversing on the outside of a mausoleum in a cemetery. The earth as a huge monster underneath the earths crust... lightly smash a round ball off chocolate to get what I mean... the hard gooey stuff sticks to the hard shell... the gooey stuff is the creature, the chocolate shell-earths crust.. and it devours the earth, can open it's many mouths and launches a sharp harpooned tongue. An underwater city where the architecture resembles a the skin and surface of humpback whales... (it's weird I'm not gonna begin to describe it but I had a dream about it once... but it did look very pretty despite what it sounds ) A boy who crawls into a big trash can and floats out to sea in it.... Death on a journey to take home the next dying soul, easy moments on this trip, person is getting weaker... hard moments on deaths journey=person getting better.
Anyway, I have lots of other ideas just no clue how to turn them into anything fleshed out. I'm not a writer.... so I really don't have and idea what to do with all of this. So... any help/ideas?
