Need your opinion!
« on: January 24, 2008, 09:48:30 PM »

Okay I have two stories brewing in my head and I really just want to focus on one of them but I'd like to poll and see which story is more likely to be read. Yes I know write for yourself, but I'd like to see which might be better received.

The first : Aphrodite's Laughter - AU/Romance/Drama

"The words written in this notebook are not story ideas full of hope or drawings that brighten ones day. The words in this notebook recount the heartbreaking tale of my family.  Of course the story of my family might have been different if only my half brother Nick had not come to live with us.  It’s not fair for me to blame him completely, I know this, but things certainly would have been different if he decided not to live with his father but stayed in the country with his mother.  
 ...I remember the day that Nick arrived very well; it was the beginning of the end.  "

(it's not all written in first person POV)

Or:  Hilltop Girls  - Drama/Suspense/maybe a little romance

Nick moves to a new town and finds it is a meeca full of girls willing to do anything and everyting to please him.  He believes he has finally found a paradise. But when the girls start to disappear, eyes turn on him as the suspect.  Will he be able to find out what is happening to them before something happens to him?

 (Yes it's a town full of Dee's ;p )

I'm with Julie -- I kinda prefer the second one. To be honest, I couldn't even make it through the summary of the first one.... I'm a terrible person :P

They both sound intriguing but from a readers perspective I'd prolly be more likely to randomly click on Hilltop Girls. Girls doing everything and anything to please Nick? And then they disapear? LOl I'm sold! You definitely have got my attention.

I think the first one caught my attention more. But the second idea sounded like it could be good too. I say write them both.

I have to say the first one - Aphrodite's Laughter. Normally, I would have said Hilltop Girls, but I'm beyond in love with first person POV! (I know you said that not all of it is, but I love it anyway, lol). :D
