Why did he murder Margaret?
-
What is the cult and why is it dangerous?
-
Does your story have any epic plot twists?
-
What do your characters look like?
-
@Danni88 - Because of her wealth and what she represented being part of the elite upper class.
@DarkPandemonium - They live and work at a campground in Yellowstone, and are dangerous because Jay is not a good person and very manipulative.
@Shikora - Maybe.
@occymay - I did a fan cast. Alex is Kathryn Newton, Sasha is Natalia Dyer, Michelle is Rowan Blanchard, Blake is Noah Centinelo, and Jay is Armie Hammer. Those are the central characters anyway. -
Intriguing. In what way is Jay not a good person? What are his goals?
-
Why did Jay make a cult?
-
@DarkPandemonium - He's a psychopath, so he doesn't care about other people. He wants attention and recognition.
@Saen - He wanted to gather a group of people who wouldn't leave him, and he picked younger people, mostly girls, because they weren't as world weary and because he could take advantage of the power dynamic. -
How much focus will be on any sort of romance, or will there be romance in the first place? If yes, between whom?
