Would anyone read that?

  1. Uh... I just had this idea for a novella. A quick summary:

    Joanna Fisher is a psychologist who is dealing with divorce because she can't conceive. She is a catholic that believes that sex only should happen on marriage, and looks down on women who are promiscious. Basically speaking, she's a priveliged conservative white female. Until the day she meets Lilith Tovar, a younger woman who wants to abort her pregnancy because it's a consequence of a rape. Then, they both go in a journey which the main theme is how women (female-bodied and male-bodied) survive on a society dominated by patriarchy and mysogyny.

    I already put on a thread a draft of a MC in a fantasy novel which speaks basically patriarchy and mysogyny, but I think I wouldn't be able to create an entire setting on my own, so I changed the whole thing until I had the story above.

    Anyone would read? No?

    Okay.

    A story concept means nothing. What matters is how you write it: the characterization, the flow, the imagery, all of it.

    There's absolutely no benefit in asking what other people think of the concept! They'll either say,"Sounds great," or, "it sounds like a ripoff of..."

    If the idea stirs you, write it. Then ask people what they think of the final story. After they tell you what they don't like about it, revise it, usually several times, until you're happy with it or until you throw up your hands and say the hell with it.

    Please read What is Plot Creation and Development?

    Anything is readable when written well. Seems like it would make for an enlightening story on the issue of abortion too.
