  1. do your own homework, buddy.


  2. how about one about a girl who didnt want to do her homework and got on the computer to ask people what she should do

  3. A story on clones...seriously no offence but you gotta use you own imagination that is why it is called YOUR SHORT STORY. All you need is a sentence to make up a story.

    e.g plane crash, death, discovery etc etc

  4. Sounds hard...but here is an idea.

    Girl comes home from school and finds letter addressed to herself in mailbox.

    The letter is from her birth mother and the girl is shocked as she only just  found out she was adopted and only just registered with the agency to allow any contact.

    The girl hides the letter from her parents and only confides to her best friend about it.

    Eventually she calls responds to the letter but only with a time and a date to meet... at the local surf club.

    The girl doesn't go through with the meeting and watches on from a safe distance..she wants the mother to know what it feels like to be abandoned.

    The next week at school a substitute teacher arrives to take English class and it is none other than the birth mother.

    The girl realises that as soon as the attendance sheet is looked at the woman will discover who she is.

    The two are then face to face for the first time.

    And when the teacher calls out the girls name..she says "Here...mum"


  5. Here are some ideas.

    1. Someone is kidnapped and locked in a cell (she can be raped) she can go insane or not, you decide.

    2. A girl (or boy) runs away from her horrible life at home and keeps a diary.

    3. A crime scene investigator trying to find out who robbed a bank He (or she) has multiple personalities and hes the guy who robbed the bank.

    4. About a girl (or boy) who asked someone for a book idea, a neighbor gives her a murder story, then she starts to realize that its a true story.

    5.How about someone who is confined to a very tiny space, maybe trapped in a cage, unable to get out - then, finally gets out into the open spaces and finds it's too scary, wants only to get back to the confined space of the cage. Turns out she's a pigeon.

    Hope that helped and if you use an idea, let me know!

  6. You can't steal other people's ideas, but if you need inspiration, go for a walk around your neighbouhood and observe what's happening in the world and your family. That way, people can relate to the story and characters because it's realistic and may even happen to them frequently. If you want something more abstract like fantasy, I go to the museum where they always have strange stuff for inspiration.

    Hope I helped! (and if you'r really stuck, just do something like a bad day at school or something!)

  7. LOL. Ignore the others...I'd be happy to give you an idea. I've always have sooo many and I never have enough time to actually write them. Though, you will have to contrube a bit I'll make this as simple as possible. II'moing to put you in a sisituationnd your objective is to solve the problem, your end results should be a story with all the things you need, alright?

    You're going to a party with some of your friends, it's a saturday night and really cold outside. Everything is going great, though there are more people there than you expected. Older people and people you don't know. You've had too much to drink or you've become tired so you decided to step outside for some aiir. The entire backyard is empty you can't see anyone, wich is perfect. There's a bench by the garden, feeling tired and beyond exsusted you decide to lie down and rest, just for a little while.......Before you know it you've crashed.

    (Get ready this is the climax) When you wake up the unexpected has happened. Your locked in a cellar, lying on an old cot. confused, tied up and gagged.

    What do you do now? It turns out you've been kidnaped by a vampire, who has no intention to kill you.....But has been watching you.

    At first you feel sorry for this lonesome creature....Until you learn he has a dark side.

    Alright now it's your job to describe how you escape. Good luck, I hope I didn't give you to hard of one, if I did let me know and i'll give you another. :)
