Young Writers Society

Hello! This is my first time posting in this part of the forum, because I've had a veeery long period of barely writing anything. Now, I have an idea I am determined to stick with, and I will complete it, and it will be a novel, and it will be good.

So.
This story is about a twin boy and girl who live in some kind of old fantasy type country with their foster parents. On their eighteenth birthday they are given a letter left to them by their parents explaining the regret of having to leave them, and so they go on a journey to find their parents. Each person they are led to directs them to the place they think they could be, or where they were last seen, and tells them a little more about them. But they begin to discover that their parents might not be the people they are hoping for, and when the stories they heard turn out to be true, the twins are disillusioned.
I'm not sure how it will end...they meet their parents, and then they check in with their foster parents to tell them of their adventures, and maybe they continue travelling, or on their travels they were inspired by religion or a need to help people, and so continue to travel for that reason. I don't know.

Tonight I drew the twins, so now I have a better idea about them, and I have a rough plan of what's going to happen, apart from the ending. I also need to think of a title...I'll keep you posted!

Well you caught my attention as soon as you mentioned twins. Lol. I'm very fond of twins and I think some of the best characters throughout literature have been twins (fred and george one of the more recent examples) but yeah, keep us posted and I'm sure you'll think of an ending before you get there. Afterall, you can't get to the end if you have no end to get to. Lol.

nice. sounds cool. a familiar idea but not cliche. good luck!

great idea! I'd read it!

I love dealing with twins. Sounds like fun.

A little late, but I've posted a very rough draft of the prologue and first chapter here: topic26804.html
I'm thinking about changing it so that their parents are living in a strange, out of control city, like rapture in Bioshock if you're familiar with the game. But I have no proper ideas for that yet, and still no ending.
