Hey! I was thinking of doing this saga thing. Tell me what you think?

Well you know that whole superstition on magpies? One for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl, four for a boy etc... I was going to do a saga with one of each line and have a different thing in each. Like the first book: One for sorrow, the second : two for joy etc. The plots would be good too. For the first would be a sort of tragedy story. Told in third person maybe. OK. It may suck but this was just me and my friend Megan (Shout out) messing about so tell me what you think?
The only true failure, is when you give up. ♥

That actually sounds really neat, but would the stories relate to each other at all?
I think it would be amazing if they tied into each other somehow.
That's such a great idea! *is jealous*

I'm wondering why I didn't come up with that idea first...probably cuz' I've never heard the superstition. Anyways, it sounds like a great story, only you might have some readers getting bored with the repetition of the magpies...not this reader though...I'd read it 'till you ran it right into the ground.
PM me if you ever post it!
