am writing a book, about a girl who%26#039;s parents are murdered when she is three. She soon gets sent to family members who don%26#039;t really want her. Soon the girl recieves the gift of seeing the dead. She also has a friend who%26#039;s she%26#039;s known since the first grade. The boy who is her friend likes her but she is too focused on another guy who is much more popular to notice that. So it%26#039;ll be like a Horror/Romance book.|||I like the plot, you%26#039;ll hook the reader with murder at the beginning and her ability will keep the reader interested. But i think you need to give it a big climax to make it really amazing. I really like Avatar%26#039;s idea, that would throw the reader off, and make it interesting. Although i think it would be better if the parents were killed for a reason. Maybe because they had powers as well, and whoever killed them is trying to exterminate everyone with paranormal powers. So through-out the story you could have you character being stalked by her parents murderer because he wants to finish the job.
sorry if that was confusing, e-mail me and I%26#039;ll explain it better|||not really my thing but sounds like a great plot:)|||what if her parents are murdered by this guy who she later sees when she gets powers to see the dead, and the popular guy is the murders son, and is out to get the girl, but is pretending to like her. And her best friend has powers too.|||not really my interest but it is a really good plot though.|||The idea sounds good but I just wanted to point out the similarity to the Harry Potter series - a child is orphaned at a young age and sent to live with relatives who do not want them, then they discover they have special abilities. If it doesn%26#039;t bother you, it doesn%26#039;t bother me, but it%26#039;s something you should be aware of.
