So I have recently decided that I want to write a book. I kind of have a plot sort of worked out. I know that I want it to be something that teenagers will read. I just need some help deciding a few things.
I want to write a book about a girl who loses her mom a couple of weeks before her high school graduation. It might sound morbid but I think that I can show the transformation she takes. I want to show how she goes from depressed severely to making a complete 360. I want her to be sad and stricken the first month or two and then I want her to start rebelling against people. She'll go off to college in August but she starts off on the wrong foot. In the story I pictured her older brother's best friend trying to point her in the right direction a few weeks after she starts college and they eventually "hook up" except its sort of more than that. (this is only a rough draft and my first idea)
Second Idea:
A girl goes through a transformation during her senior year. She's been dating the same guy for three years. He's a college freshman and she just stops loving him. She isn't happy with him anymore; she doesn't feel the spark that was there in the beginning. She breaks up with him and starts to just do what she wants. She hangs out with her friends like old times and eventually starts to see other guys. She gets caught up in a relationship with the worst kind of guy and things start to go sour pretty quickly. He doesn't treat her like he should; he's hitting her and verbally abusing her.
Those are my two ideas. I just don't know where to start. I know what I want to do I just don't know how to start them. I've tried but then quickly lose interest. any suggestions?! it'd be much appreciated!! Thanks!!
