i took creative writing this semester to fill my last GE credit. I like writing but im terrible at coming up with ideas so shoot me some cool ideas and i'll run with all of them in 1 cool story if i can.:
demons attack from space but then it turns out it was all just a dream or was it?
I started a story and realized I didn't have the patience nor skill to complete.
It's about the second coming of the Messiah.. brought on by impatient, misguided religious zealots who beseige the Cathedral of Turin, stealing a certain linen cloth venerated by some as containing an imprint of the dead body of Jesus... and using genetic cloning to prematurely force the resurrection of Christ.
Thus sparking a battle for the child's soul by The Seraphs and the Accuser of The Breathren. All the while the child is unaware of his purpose/identity and is lured by the temptations of the world, as Christ was in the Synoptic Gospels.
The big question... is this the son of God... or all part of the Adversary's final march against Heaven?
The title is Abaddon. Abaddon is greatly disputed by biblical scholars. Some religions think he was an angel of the lord... others a demon or even Satan or the Antichrist himself. He is often beheld as the 'angel of the abyss', the holder of the key to the lake of fire who binds Satan and casts him away for 1000 years.
This contradiction of perception is paralleled in the story of the protagonist. As the plot develops whether or not this child is reborn for the dark or the light, he is told he needs to find Abaddon to fulfill his destiny.
He finds Abaddon in the most unlikely place. He is Abaddon. The climax has him overpowering Satan and banishing him to Sheol.
And then they all get high and listen to Yes albums.

Now that's a jesus I can worship.
You can always come up with ideaassss here are some ways I do
a) write whatever you can think of stream-of-consciousness-style until it forms a coherent idea
b) click random article on wikipedia until you figure something out
c) watch a bunch of movies and let it all mush together into something
d) go for a walk? fresh air is nice but I don't know if it'd be successful for you or not
z) lazy: write an allegory about yourself
-1) consolation prize: ask other people
a hitman is on his last job before he retires, as his wife had been flipping out and demanding to know what he was doing outside of work and the home all the time.
he's been hired by a politician to kill a prostitute the politician had slept with. she's agreed to meet with him at a sleazy, hourly-rates motel. things go south when the prostitute turns out to be taking part in a sting. he gets out by the skin of his teeth, but on his way out, he discovers his wife had followed him, wanting to find out what he was doing. knowing what kind of motel it was, his scorned wife shoots him dead just as reinforcements arrive.

Write about an amazing stunt that an Evil Knieval-esque character is going to do. Really play up the stunt and how amazing and mind-blowing it is.
Then, the stunt happens and you can't truly enjoy the stunt because you're reading about it.
Then get up from your desk and shit "fuck my imagination" onto it and then fuck the TV.
Call it art and your teacher will blow you.
Also I'm in a creative writing class this semester as well I should make a thread and post about the shit I write in that class.
