Haha betcha didnt know there was a second part! Thats because I just decided there is gonna be one! Whuppeee!!
Last time we chatted, I helped you get the basic structure of your book. Genre plot and characters. However, I want to delve a little deeper. Because even if you have the basic idea of your book, you are totally not done planning.
One thing you have to do obviously is name your characters. I have a list of names made up by yours truly, which will hopefully prove helpful. For fantasy writing, female names like Wista, Aspin, Tarin, Pura, and Sopheel might be interesting. Male names like Maple, Caden, Zak, Quint, and Salyor might work. For dystopian writing, some good female names are Shine, Quiet, Nikaq, Fox, and Bittersweet. Some excellent male names are Rex, Mastr, Nine, Coal, or Erakun. Remember, if you don't like the spelling you can obviously change it.
Now, for the plot, here are a couple ideas you can work with:
Fantasy Plots
A young girl escapes to the Toothed Mountains, because of a griffin attack on her village which her father did not survive. Her avengeful brother becomes a griffin hunter, and when this young girl befriends a griffin she realizes that she'll have to choose her friend or her brother.
A girl/boy discovers a broken down car in the woods that turns out to be a time portal.
A boy realizes his cat has really been guarding him from a mysterious enemy, and can talk.
A girl/boy is shrunken.
Dystopian Plots
Someone steps through a mirror.
Someone is exiled to a place where they have only seven days to live
Someone is recruited to protect certain people from invisible monsters
Anyway, those were just some ideas. You can always twist one of these plots a little (and that's advisable) to make it your own! Have fun waiting for part three!
