I don't love the last one because it's kind of a twisted version of synesthesia and I think it would just be better to write a character with synesthesia at that point
HI ANA! I am a young writer, and i started REALLY writing a year ago! you have helped me so much with motivation and tips, and i know you have helped others! thank you!
Hello! I’m only 13 and im gonna be honest, ever since I found this channel of yours, it feels like I’ve literally entered a whole other world with ppl who are like me…(btw that’s a pretty cool story idea) so just wanted to say THANKYOU for inspiring me and pushing me out of my little “unsure self” to finally start writing what I truly am passionate about❤❤ Edit: Tq for the likes!
8:24 me and my friends back in elementary school used to play games similar to that idea, we dont talk much anymore but we all remember it very fondly. Best times ever💕
literally all of these ideas sound more like backstories for characters than entire books. which makes it so much better because I'd love to see a story with all of these characters in the same story 😁🥰👀.
I’m currently plotting a new novel it’s a mulan retelling but with fae and I am definitely not a plotter but your vid’s are helping me get through this love you

Based on the idea of the man falling in love with the girl in the painting, I think you would like the movie Laura (1944). It is a similar idea. The detective on the case of Laura's murder mystery falls in love with her portrait. Have you watched it? And by the way, I love these ideas! I might use the princess in mirror but with my own twist if that's okay♥♥♥
2 things! 1. Great amazing ideas, comrade! 2. I don't have that many projects, but I do need a small break from Project X (aka the one that has death banshees) and I was thinking on this project name called "chicken adventures" where the chickens are the main focus and they go on adventures and these are based off of my actually chickens, here are the chickens names (that are the actually names of the chickens) Bean, Lemon, Jennah, Cantaloupe, Kris/Stub, Haru, Soldier, Mushroom, Egg, and Lambesarus/Lambie!

I just got an idea for a book. Please do not copy because i will be using it, but you can take inspiration. So basically there are two girls. ( lets call the older one Isa and younger 1 Tina ) So they have a really strong bond and do so much together, but one day Tina goes missing. From Tina's perspective, she doesn’t know that she's dead, and walks around the forest trying to find her sister. Meanwhile Isa goes through many trials and obstacles, even kills multiple people just to unknowingly come face to face with tina, where only tina can see people, but her being dead, she is unseen. When Isa runs off to keep looking for Tina, Tina finds her gravestone in the abandoned graveyard, yet no one could have made it if they didnt know she was dead.....( cliffhanger HEHEHEH 👹 )
I love your ideas sooooo much!! ❤ I have been inspired to write a story based off of the princess in the mirror. She got pushed in by her sister and they basically switched lives but she is stuck in the mirror
I'm quite young but i love writing! And i will be honest... Ever since i found this channel, it has LITERALLY helped me with writing my first book which im working on right now! I'm so happy there are people like me! I just subscribed a few days ago and it has helped so SO MUCH with writing my first book♡
Yeah i suddenly felt inspired to write this. I seriously dont know if I will even write it on a page but in case anyone finds it useful. “Charisma is a double-edged blade; the brighter the light it reflects, the deeper the shadows it hides.” This is a tale of how leaders wield words more dangerously than weapons. Of how children are indoctrinated to fight young for causes bigger than themselves, too complex for them to comprehend, destroying their innocence in the process. Of how following orders can make people commit acts they would otherwise condemn-a chilling echo of excuses past: “I was just following orders.” It is a story of complicity: of knowing exactly who will pull the trigger, what they will do with the gun, and still handing it over-knowing the blood is, inescapably, on your hands. Of the devastating question: Do the ends justify the means? And what happens when the tools meant to bring peace threaten to annihilate everything they were meant to protect? And yet, it is also a tale of necessity, of how sometimes even a dictatorship may seem justified to bring peace to a divided galaxy ravaged by war. In a universe so technologically advanced, civilians are still slaughtered and hunted like cattle for their allegiance. There are no international laws of war here-everything is fair game. Jiāng Xiaoyun, a brilliant but desperate weaponsmith, is forced to navigate this brutal world when the House of the Qilin, a faction cloaking authoritarian rule behind the guise of democracy, offers her everything she’s ever dreamed of: a state-of-the-art facility, unlimited resources, and the chance to leave her mark on history. Alongside her lifelong friend Tao Qiang, Xiaoyun joins their ranks, hoping to restore her father’s legacy. But ambition has its costs. As her creations grow more devastating, Xiaoyun finds herself in a role akin to that of a god, deciding who lives and who dies with every blueprint she designs. The weapons she builds tip the scales of power, shaping battles, factions, and the course of the entire war. While Qiang, once dissociated from the lives their weapons take, begins to feel the crushing weight of guilt, Xiaoyun finds herself drawn deeper into the Black Lotus’ ideology. Seduced by their vision of unity and the dangerously charismatic leadership of Jinhai, she becomes colder, her moral boundaries eroding as she justifies the devastation her creations bring. When Jinhai commissions Xiaoyun to design a weapon so powerful it could destroy entire planets, she rationalizes its purpose as a deterrent-a way to prevent violence rather than incite it. Yet, the weapon itself becomes a mirror, forcing her to confront the truth: How much destruction is acceptable in the name of peace? As the ideological rift between Xiaoyun and Qiang grows, they face a universe where survival demands impossible choices. What happens when the tools you create don’t just kill your enemies, but also destroy your soul? And in the end, who will be left standing: the one who fights to save their conscience or the one who buries it to win?
The one that reminds you of the magic schoolbus lowkey reminds me of the ep of Invader Zim where he lures the field trip bus into a wormhole to meet their doom, and at the end (which he acts like is deadly) is a room with a moose in it.
Hi ana! I really love your videos so much but i was just wondering if u could make more story inspirations and like make it a mysterious and neutral grey and you know those types of story ideas because i plan on making a book one day so it coukd really help me (since i can hardly think of any ideas lol) none the less i really enjoy watching your videos and this is just a video idea so its ok if u cant make it!
Idk if that can help you but I don’t imagine a story for book I imagine the aesthetic, the characters and the title. And then the story is magically coming to my little dumb mind
Hi Ana ! I’m a original on your channel that has been following you since your rainbow loom videos ! I’m really glad you haven’t stopped posting on UA-cam your a amazing creator that was part of my childhood
I made this out of idea 8: A young girl with great powers is sent to a witches academy. She is sent with her best friend, who she has known since their years as toddlers. She is amazed with almost everything..Except for the thief among the students who has been stealing priceless wizarding artifacts. (Its kinda obvious but ykkkkkk)
8:47 there's actually a book with this premise called the book jumper by mechthild glaser, its very atmospheric it takes place in scottland I highly recommend
10:59 The running prince idea actually exists in my country and is very similar! It's a movie called "The princess madly sad" 1968 and it's a musical!❤😍
you really inspired me! i have always been gifted in reading and i always thought what if my name was in the cover of that book? i wrote little stories and comics when i was younger, now i have been planning a horse fantasy story! keep up the good work ana!❤
omg the first prompts is literally something I'm currently working on (although he is not a dragon trainer), he's currently a side character in part one of the story but will become the secondary leading character later on.
i believe that ideas probably only make up 10% of the actual book. the rest is execution. the most generic idea can turn into a wonderful story if executed well. even if you have a great unique brilliant idea etc etc, don't get so caught up in it that you forget to actually write it. i've seen so many authors absolutely BUTCHER an otherwise potential-filled idea because they didn't execute it well.
True, a good idea only gets you a front, maybe a back but all of that middle takes a lot work of and a lot of great execution. If done right though a good idea can create amazing things.
Your vids literally inspire me so much I always watch you when I’m in a writing slump yoir voice literally just makes me want to write as soon as I hear it obsessed with you and ur vids 💞💞
Oh my god, Ana, you are a LIFESAVER. I’ve been having trouble finding the perfect idea for my first ever book and this just dropped. Haven’t watched it yet but I know it’ll be great
Random lines I got from these prompts (im bad at writing so have mercy on me) 1.Dragon Trainor living with uncle- "I watched as the city went up in flames, the fiery creatures circling the sky, sparing no one." 2. Sculpter ghost one- "I watched as my dearly beloved Abigail forms in the stone, her eyes staring back at me, causing the guilt to resurface" 5. Pilot- "I look as the helicopter circled above us, tears forming in my eyes as I look over at the face I've grown to love. The face I see each morning and night. The face I've spent months admiring." *they fell in love 🫶* 6. Bird boy- "I watch as my dear friend Finn changes shape, his beautiful black wings turning to slender arms, his cold black eyes filling with life. The raven I befriended as a child, standing in front of me, completely human" ?. Graves- "Our fates were set in stone. Our futures ending here.. unless we change our stories" *reminds me of going back in time or reincarnation you could say, givin a chance at life again, so I thought they had to stop what killed them, all their deaths connected, might actually do this....👀* They were all soooo good!!
gurrlll. these are really very fascinating and i love them.. but i needed to ask this.. how and where do you find the pictures that give you so many inspos. like what do you actually search for? i'd be really glad if you replied..
Im currently writing a Norse Mythology Book and uploading it on wattpad. Basically it’s the daughter of Sif (the Norse goddess of the earth) who’s lost and they hve to find her because the earth is suffering and the daughter, Rhette slowly figures out that she has awesome fire powers and is basically one of the most powerful demigod kids. Also there’s like a mini b-plot of her and her classmate, Connie, navigating a friendship and eventually being end game. I’m kind of stuck though so I thought this video might strike inspiration.
Hey ana thanks for your ideas will probably try them out in my own style. Also happy to see u uploading regularly❤. Question:-How is project prison going?
hiiii idk if youre going to read this but i have this idea for a novella where its a romance between 2 characters who were childhood friends and the boy has been dead the whole time but the girl is so caught up in her own grief she almost “pretends” he’s there? but the reader doesnt know he’s dead? idk how to start/ make a plot for this 😭
You could just start with dialogue between them and then go from there. or you can just have them sitting beside each other on a bench at a park and see what happens? This is just a tip if you still need help.
I have this book idea we’re a writer starts to run into character from his books, probably not gonna write it so I might as well share it for someone who does
I can always come up with amazing titles and first/last liners, but never the actual plot T0T I’m writing a book right now titled “Your Words May Be Sharp, But My Blade May Be Sharper.” and I’ve only just figured out the ending- (Another one I’ve got which I still need to figure out the plot to is called “With The Devil At My Side And God As My Slave”)
Book idea An artist and if she/he draws something it will come to life or in the middle of the nite exactly at 23:00 the drawings come to life and rule the city/town/village
Hello Ana! I was just wondering if I can take the idea of the graveyard one with the drunk students that sounds like it has potential (Ofc I would do a few touch ups though
for number 11 (big dark creature in a forest etc) you should check out the manga "the girl from the other side" (totsukuni no shoujo) it is so so so beautiful and definitely what you described !
Okay, so I’m an artist, I create these characters and I draw them… however I’ve created these little worlds and backgrounds for each character that I drew and I’m trying to but them into words ( like a book or little short stories) but this is my first time and I don’t know were to start…
Hey! I don’t know if you will read this, but I recently came across your channel, and i was also recommended by some friends! your content is amazing and it also inspires me to write, make content etc! because of you and other channels, i started my own! and i hope to post on it soon! thanks for putting a smile on peoples faces!
Question: I wrote my first book and have shared it with 4 people so far but I kinda realized it's cringe. Should I keep sharing it or just move on to my next one. This book really is important to me but idk
maybe you could revise it a little bit ? change some plot point or a character that create this problem ? but you can still be proud of it its a whole ass book ! and somewhere theres someone who will love it its sure
I wrote a story when I was younger🙂 There is a kid named Amara and her older brother Trubash and they have a little newborn brother named Jeeteeny and they are sailing on a boat to their new home. Amara is awoken by the waves splashing onto her face. She sits up, Jeeteeny cradled asleep in her arms, and sees the island. It’s a super tall treehouse with a small beach stretched around it! Amara gave Jeeteeny to Trubash and stepped into the soft sand. She stared up in amazement. She ran inside, her pigtails jumping around with her. They unloaded the food and went up the long, swirly stairs inside and found their rooms. Amara had the same room as Jeeteeny. Amara, being a kid who thinks outside the box, ran back outside to play instead of preparing her room. Trubash smiled, knowing how stubborn she was. Amara kicked the sand playfully outside the treehouse. Eventually, Trubash and Jeeteeny came outside too. As they splashed, they eventually started swimming. As they were in the water, Amara felt a rumbling beneath them. Suddenly, a giant shadow creature emerged and ate them! Amara woke up first, coughing up water. She saw that she was laying on a different beach! She went over and woke up the others. They took in their surroundings. That’s all I remember, I’ll have to go find the voice recording I did for it to remember the rest.😅
This is really random but my parents asked what I was doing while I was writing and I told them I was writing so they wanted to see what I wrote but they wouldn't like what I wrote so I showed them then moved to another tab so they won't see it and told them its not done yet so now they want to read it when its done and so i need to figure out a way to stop that from happening because if they read it it will not end well.
Basically what I came up with: Something-or someone-attacks his home, and kills his uncle and the dragons. All but one-the baby. He sees his uncle in his last moments. Several years later, after harnessing some of his magical abilities, he runs into a woman who claims she can help him find vengeance. However, she is running from something herself. She stole an important relic (which she uses to assist the trainer) and the owners are after her. She takes him to a place filled with people looking for the same type of vengeance, and there they meet the third member of their group-an assassin with very little to love, whom a god curses. Please, please, let me know if I took too much from your ideas
Hey Ana I’m such a huge fan of yours and I love writing, I wanna write a book about my life but like, I wanna make it so maybe I can feel comfortable publishing it maybe in the future, got any advice or tips on how I can do so, I feel it may help me relieve stress too so I need some advice if possible, love ya, thank you ❤❤❤❤
A lot of these suggestions reminded me of Oscar Wilde’s the Picture of Dorian Gray!! You should definitely read it, it’s similar to the theme of the creator becoming obsessed with their creation :-)
I might just get a discord account to join yours- this video was so lovely and inspiring I can’t wait to watch more of your contact! I will indeed be using some of these ideas In my works to come, you have such the creative mind! Keep shining!
This is one of mine! When I was 10. In 2020 (I was only 10) I had a concept of a book that I never wrote(cause I’m lazy af) of 2 twins from noble family’s in the 1920’s were they both were trans(yes not accurate to irl I was 10) and they would switch places with each other (one was a boy other was a girl also it makes no sense now to me as if one was a boy and other was a girl would they even be identical enough to pull it off) but someone overheard them and as it was the 1940’s and it was a new concept, they was still no legal backlash from it but the person who overheard them(I never gave them a name cause again I was 10) found this to be “unnatural” but he(idk the gender I may have gave him one so he’s a boy now since it’s easier)still found it interesting as a concept so he decided to “study” them and wanted to see if by “pretending”(this is 1940s remember it was a new concept) would they have any physical changes, he documents it carefully as we read these twins attempt to live as the other twin and near the end his documents end up being discovered by some homeless people who found that they could earn some serious money from blackmail or selling these twins out to their parents and that’s all my 10 year old self wrote in her little book(yes I never wrote the book but I did write the idea along with some horrible character designs)
Drunk students that work at night wander into a park only to find pedestal for statues that all have their names on them. Also one night one of the students decides not to go drinking immediately after work with the rest of the students only to discover that they are no longer truly students and have been for countless years as they have been cursed to turn to stone with just one night a month to roam around. They normally spend that one night working and then drinking until morning only to stumble across their own pedestal moments before morning and then revert back to statues for the next month. The one that split from the group, she manages to avoid being destoryed the following morning as park is to replaced by something new instead.
All of these ideas will make great stories!! 💡📚✨

number 12; two lovers with opposing powers cannot be together as everything pushes them apart (9:56) -- maybe power restrictions
number 13; two cousins who fall into a puddle that leads into the underworld (10:28) -- its giving 'it' and i love it
number 14; the prince is running away from his marriage only to meet the woman he is supposed to marry and she's also his assassin (10:57)

number 16; a struggling writer is cursed by a ghost who claims to be her lover (11:58) -- girl could be writing about their love story and predicts their future??? maybe the fact that one of them dies but she doesnt know which?????? its giving everything that could be gave.
number 17; pirate son saves the mermaid/merman from the nets (12:29)
number 18; artist falls in love with the girl in his painting (12:51) -- could be that she's actually real and it could give joe's insanity from YOU S4
number 19; two-faced scholar takes his education to another world (13:29)

Thank you for doing god's work 🙏
Ah thanks for this! I also love the show manifest lol that’s a good idea
Why does number 10 kinda reminds me what happen to Kurapika’s clan

I don't love the last one because it's kind of a twisted version of synesthesia and I think it would just be better to write a character with synesthesia at that point

I got the exact same idea of someone trapped inside of a mirror JUST YESTERDAY. You know what they say "Great minds think alike."

It is a story of complicity: of knowing exactly who will pull the trigger, what they will do with the gun, and still handing it over-knowing the blood is, inescapably, on your hands. Of the devastating question: Do the ends justify the means? And what happens when the tools meant to bring peace threaten to annihilate everything they were meant to protect?
And yet, it is also a tale of necessity, of how sometimes even a dictatorship may seem justified to bring peace to a divided galaxy ravaged by war. In a universe so technologically advanced, civilians are still slaughtered and hunted like cattle for their allegiance. There are no international laws of war here-everything is fair game.
Jiāng Xiaoyun, a brilliant but desperate weaponsmith, is forced to navigate this brutal world when the House of the Qilin, a faction cloaking authoritarian rule behind the guise of democracy, offers her everything she’s ever dreamed of: a state-of-the-art facility, unlimited resources, and the chance to leave her mark on history. Alongside her lifelong friend Tao Qiang, Xiaoyun joins their ranks, hoping to restore her father’s legacy.
But ambition has its costs. As her creations grow more devastating, Xiaoyun finds herself in a role akin to that of a god, deciding who lives and who dies with every blueprint she designs. The weapons she builds tip the scales of power, shaping battles, factions, and the course of the entire war. While Qiang, once dissociated from the lives their weapons take, begins to feel the crushing weight of guilt, Xiaoyun finds herself drawn deeper into the Black Lotus’ ideology. Seduced by their vision of unity and the dangerously charismatic leadership of Jinhai, she becomes colder, her moral boundaries eroding as she justifies the devastation her creations bring.
When Jinhai commissions Xiaoyun to design a weapon so powerful it could destroy entire planets, she rationalizes its purpose as a deterrent-a way to prevent violence rather than incite it. Yet, the weapon itself becomes a mirror, forcing her to confront the truth: How much destruction is acceptable in the name of peace?
As the ideological rift between Xiaoyun and Qiang grows, they face a universe where survival demands impossible choices. What happens when the tools you create don’t just kill your enemies, but also destroy your soul?
And in the end, who will be left standing: the one who fights to save their conscience or the one who buries it to win?
The one that reminds you of the magic schoolbus lowkey reminds me of the ep of Invader Zim where he lures the field trip bus into a wormhole to meet their doom, and at the end (which he acts like is deadly) is a room with a moose in it.
Hi ana! I really love your videos so much but i was just wondering if u could make more story inspirations and like make it a mysterious and neutral grey and you know those types of story ideas because i plan on making a book one day so it coukd really help me (since i can hardly think of any ideas lol) none the less i really enjoy watching your videos and this is just a video idea so its ok if u cant make it!
Idk if that can help you but I don’t imagine a story for book I imagine the aesthetic, the characters and the title. And then the story is magically coming to my little dumb mind
heheh yesss this is the best way to brainstorm ☺️🤍
This is always how I come up with my best ideas!
I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS UGH OMG IVE BEEN A WRITING BLOCK FOR 3 YEARS YOUR GETTING ME OUT OF IT THANK YOU AGH
Thanks! This is giving me inspiration for working on my own book!
The last one remind me of a book called “prickly romance “…but the deaf person can feel the music when they play an instrument
I absolutely loved all of your story ideas! Thank you sharing these! :)
Hi Ana ! I’m a original on your channel that has been following you since your rainbow loom videos ! I’m really glad you haven’t stopped posting on UA-cam your a amazing creator that was part of my childhood
i cant express how much this came at the right time 😭 tysm ana i love youu! i really needed inspiration right now ❤
i SCREAMED when i saw this
I made this out of idea 8: A young girl with great powers is sent to a witches academy. She is sent with her best friend, who she has known since their years as toddlers. She is amazed with almost everything..Except for the thief among the students who has been stealing priceless wizarding artifacts. (Its kinda obvious but ykkkkkk)
I have so many ideas but I just don't know how to connect them and channel them into stories tbh
8:47 there's actually a book with this premise called the book jumper by mechthild glaser, its very atmospheric it takes place in scottland I highly recommend
THE FIRST ONE. I'm SO writing that. Maybe I shouldn't be watching this while I'm working on my current book....
I’m so excited to watch this rn I’ve been binging your videos lately I love your channel so much ❤️❤️
10:59 The running prince idea actually exists in my country and is very similar! It's a movie called "The princess madly sad" 1968 and it's a musical!❤😍
ooo i neeeed to check that out then!!
you really inspired me! i have always been gifted in reading and i always thought what if my name was in the cover of that book? i wrote little stories and comics when i was younger, now i have been planning a horse fantasy story! keep up the good work ana!❤
omg the first prompts is literally something I'm currently working on (although he is not a dragon trainer), he's currently a side character in part one of the story but will become the secondary leading character later on.
20 ideas is a lot????! Babes I’ve got a whole folder with 300+ holy crap
SHARE THEM
i believe that ideas probably only make up 10% of the actual book. the rest is execution. the most generic idea can turn into a wonderful story if executed well. even if you have a great unique brilliant idea etc etc, don't get so caught up in it that you forget to actually write it. i've seen so many authors absolutely BUTCHER an otherwise potential-filled idea because they didn't execute it well.
True, a good idea only gets you a front, maybe a back but all of that middle takes a lot work of and a lot of great execution.
If done right though a good idea can create amazing things.
Oo i'd love to hear more of these!!!
Your vids literally inspire me so much I always watch you when I’m in a writing slump yoir voice literally just makes me want to write as soon as I hear it obsessed with you and ur vids 💞💞
Omg the one with the drunk students gives me secret history vibes if it was a paranormal.
Oh my god, Ana, you are a LIFESAVER. I’ve been having trouble finding the perfect idea for my first ever book and this just dropped. Haven’t watched it yet but I know it’ll be great
I’ve never been this early but I’m so excited for this video
this was legitimately so freaking helpful
the one about the princess and mirrors is giving the evil queen in ever after high😭
There was two that really caught my eye
Random lines I got from these prompts (im bad at writing so have mercy on me)
1.Dragon Trainor living with uncle- "I watched as the city went up in flames, the fiery creatures circling the sky, sparing no one."
2. Sculpter ghost one- "I watched as my dearly beloved Abigail forms in the stone, her eyes staring back at me, causing the guilt to resurface"
5. Pilot- "I look as the helicopter circled above us, tears forming in my eyes as I look over at the face I've grown to love. The face I see each morning and night. The face I've spent months admiring." *they fell in love 🫶*
6. Bird boy- "I watch as my dear friend Finn changes shape, his beautiful black wings turning to slender arms, his cold black eyes filling with life. The raven I befriended as a child, standing in front of me, completely human"
?. Graves- "Our fates were set in stone. Our futures ending here.. unless we change our stories" *reminds me of going back in time or reincarnation you could say, givin a chance at life again, so I thought they had to stop what killed them, all their deaths connected, might actually do this....👀*
They were all soooo good!!
gurrlll. these are really very fascinating and i love them.. but i needed to ask this.. how and where do you find the pictures that give you so many inspos. like what do you actually search for? i'd be really glad if you replied..
I just love your videos and you. Ana, you have inspired me to write a book. ilysm
Im currently writing a Norse Mythology Book and uploading it on wattpad. Basically it’s the daughter of Sif (the Norse goddess of the earth) who’s lost and they hve to find her because the earth is suffering and the daughter, Rhette slowly figures out that she has awesome fire powers and is basically one of the most powerful demigod kids. Also there’s like a mini b-plot of her and her classmate, Connie, navigating a friendship and eventually being end game.
I’m kind of stuck though so I thought this video might strike inspiration.
This is a unique video, I like that. Thank you for the ideas and if I were to use these, I'd nake sure to give credit. ❤
Tysm Ana!!! I love your videos so much and thank you for the ideas and helping me get inspired 💕 (you’re voice is really nice btw)
This is a super smart idea! Maybe someone can help actualize our dreams while we work on our other ones (too too many exist)
9:36 okay the child saving the beast is kinda the WHOLE lore of the song lily by alan(idk how to spell lol) walker so thats lowkey interesting
I could listen to you for hours Ana
I was literally watching one of your videos 😂
Hey ana thanks for your ideas will probably try them out in my own style. Also happy to see u uploading regularly❤.
Question:-How is project prison going?
hiiii idk if youre going to read this but i have this idea for a novella where its a romance between 2 characters who were childhood friends and the boy has been dead the whole time but the girl is so caught up in her own grief she almost “pretends” he’s there? but the reader doesnt know he’s dead? idk how to start/ make a plot for this 😭
You could just start with dialogue between them and then go from there. or you can just have them sitting beside each other on a bench at a park and see what happens? This is just a tip if you still need help.
The crow idea sounds a bit like my book I'm writing: Song of the ravens where Athena (the main character) can summon and talk to ravens
Hi! I'm 12 and my dream is to write at least 1 book in my life. I already have a plot for it. Should i share it here?
please!! i’m 13 and i also have a dream to create a book someday. i would love to hear it!! :)
Yes! Im 11 and I ALSO want to write a book!
Please share it! I’m also trying to write but can’t seem to finish any of my projects because of constantly getting new ideas 😅
i needed this thank you so much!
Tysm!😭 I need to write a story for school
I have this book idea we’re a writer starts to run into character from his books, probably not gonna write it so I might as well share it for someone who does
Thank you so much for these ideas. I find it hard to get subplot ideas. So thank you.
I can always come up with amazing titles and first/last liners, but never the actual plot T0T
I’m writing a book right now titled “Your Words May Be Sharp, But My Blade May Be Sharper.” and I’ve only just figured out the ending-
(Another one I’ve got which I still need to figure out the plot to is called “With The Devil At My Side And God As My Slave”)
I'll defenetly tweak the dystopian idea to fit Crescent dark. ❤
eeee🤍🥰
I started writing the one you said about a princess being stuck in the mirror, It's called mirrored truth
Book idea
An artist and if she/he draws something it will come to life or in the middle of the nite exactly at 23:00 the drawings come to life and rule the city/town/village
I’m 12 and I have just finished my first novel 🎉
Hello Ana! I was just wondering if I can take the idea of the graveyard one with the drunk students that sounds like it has potential (Ofc I would do a few touch ups though
for number 11 (big dark creature in a forest etc) you should check out the manga "the girl from the other side" (totsukuni no shoujo) it is so so so beautiful and definitely what you described !
I love your videos! I’m only eighteen but I’ve been writing for years and I love watching your videos while I’m listening to music and writing!
Oh my god I just saw that and I gasped 😂
Okay, so I’m an artist, I create these characters and I draw them… however I’ve created these little worlds and backgrounds for each character that I drew and I’m trying to but them into words ( like a book or little short stories) but this is my first time and I don’t know were to start…
Hey! I don’t know if you will read this, but I recently came across your channel, and i was also recommended by some friends! your content is amazing and it also inspires me to write, make content etc! because of you and other channels, i started my own! and i hope to post on it soon! thanks for putting a smile on peoples faces!
aww friend thank uu🤍🌸sending hugs x
Question: I wrote my first book and have shared it with 4 people so far but I kinda realized it's cringe. Should I keep sharing it or just move on to my next one. This book really is important to me but idk
maybe you could revise it a little bit ? change some plot point or a character that create this problem ? but you can still be proud of it its a whole ass book ! and somewhere theres someone who will love it its sure
@@cyssianne thabm you sm!
@@cyssianne thank you so much! I did write it on paper so I can't really change it. Thank you again though!
I wrote a story when I was younger🙂
There is a kid named Amara and her older brother Trubash and they have a little newborn brother named Jeeteeny and they are sailing on a boat to their new home. Amara is awoken by the waves splashing onto her face. She sits up, Jeeteeny cradled asleep in her arms, and sees the island. It’s a super tall treehouse with a small beach stretched around it! Amara gave Jeeteeny to Trubash and stepped into the soft sand. She stared up in amazement. She ran inside, her pigtails jumping around with her. They unloaded the food and went up the long, swirly stairs inside and found their rooms. Amara had the same room as Jeeteeny. Amara, being a kid who thinks outside the box, ran back outside to play instead of preparing her room. Trubash smiled, knowing how stubborn she was. Amara kicked the sand playfully outside the treehouse. Eventually, Trubash and Jeeteeny came outside too. As they splashed, they eventually started swimming. As they were in the water, Amara felt a rumbling beneath them. Suddenly, a giant shadow creature emerged and ate them! Amara woke up first, coughing up water. She saw that she was laying on a different beach! She went over and woke up the others. They took in their surroundings. That’s all I remember, I’ll have to go find the voice recording I did for it to remember the rest.😅
This is really random but my parents asked what I was doing while I was writing and I told them I was writing so they wanted to see what I wrote but they wouldn't like what I wrote so I showed them then moved to another tab so they won't see it and told them its not done yet so now they want to read it when its done and so i need to figure out a way to stop that from happening because if they read it it will not end well.
TAKING NOTESSS!!
u should make another video like this!
Basically what I came up with: Something-or someone-attacks his home, and kills his uncle and the dragons. All but one-the baby. He sees his uncle in his last moments. Several years later, after harnessing some of his magical abilities, he runs into a woman who claims she can help him find vengeance. However, she is running from something herself. She stole an important relic (which she uses to assist the trainer) and the owners are after her. She takes him to a place filled with people looking for the same type of vengeance, and there they meet the third member of their group-an assassin with very little to love, whom a god curses.
Please, please, let me know if I took too much from your ideas
Hi please CAN you Tell me what app do you USE for your book???? I dönt find a good app…
I’ve been writing a book called ‘Kit Wicker’ 🥳
Hey Ana I’m such a huge fan of yours and I love writing, I wanna write a book about my life but like, I wanna make it so maybe I can feel comfortable publishing it maybe in the future, got any advice or tips on how I can do so, I feel it may help me relieve stress too so I need some advice if possible, love ya, thank you ❤❤❤❤
A lot of these suggestions reminded me of Oscar Wilde’s the Picture of Dorian Gray!! You should definitely read it, it’s similar to the theme of the creator becoming obsessed with their creation :-)
def on my list rn!
hi ana! i love your videos
I might just get a discord account to join yours- this video was so lovely and inspiring I can’t wait to watch more of your contact! I will indeed be using some of these ideas In my works to come, you have such the creative mind! Keep shining!
tysm this helped
oh thank youuuu
Tysm!

Weird family she’s going to live with
This is one of mine! When I was 10.
In 2020 (I was only 10) I had a concept of a book that I never wrote(cause I’m lazy af) of 2 twins from noble family’s in the 1920’s were they both were trans(yes not accurate to irl I was 10) and they would switch places with each other (one was a boy other was a girl also it makes no sense now to me as if one was a boy and other was a girl would they even be identical enough to pull it off) but someone overheard them and as it was the 1940’s and it was a new concept, they was still no legal backlash from it but the person who overheard them(I never gave them a name cause again I was 10) found this to be “unnatural” but he(idk the gender I may have gave him one so he’s a boy now since it’s easier)still found it interesting as a concept so he decided to “study” them and wanted to see if by “pretending”(this is 1940s remember it was a new concept) would they have any physical changes, he documents it carefully as we read these twins attempt to live as the other twin and near the end his documents end up being discovered by some homeless people who found that they could earn some serious money from blackmail or selling these twins out to their parents and that’s all my 10 year old self wrote in her little book(yes I never wrote the book but I did write the idea along with some horrible character designs)
After this, I don't think people should be complaining about a "lack of ideas".
Greetings from Ukraine.
One of those is literally elemental
lmaaaoo
The crow one is already a book it's called Feral (of course you can still use the idea, Feral is in it's own space)
Drunk students that work at night wander into a park only to find pedestal for statues that all have their names on them. Also one night one of the students decides not to go drinking immediately after work with the rest of the students only to discover that they are no longer truly students and have been for countless years as they have been cursed to turn to stone with just one night a month to roam around. They normally spend that one night working and then drinking until morning only to stumble across their own pedestal moments before morning and then revert back to statues for the next month. The one that split from the group, she manages to avoid being destoryed the following morning as park is to replaced by something new instead.
