I had these ideas, and I felt it's possible that readers will throw it off. Like for example, a brave knight on a never ending quest to save the princess is kind of cliche, and a lot of readers said it's nothing but poo. And bringing someone back from the dead is farcical and unrealistic. Any story involving teen cliques in high school are so "Disney Channel" and a bit hackneyed. And any story involving Wizards and a wizarding school will throw readers off.
These are some conventional ideas, but according to other writers, those type of ideas are unacceptable in the writing world and so are traits of Mary Sue characters.
And some parts of the Litmus Test I took recently, had questions like "Is your MC the last of his family?" "Was she raped as a child?" "Is he smarter that most of the other characters?" "Is he well respected or hated?"
Does he have a familiar who is NOT a cat, dog, hamster or bird?"
Again, based on the litmus test, those things are also unnaceptable and no one wants to read something like that.
I wanna give you my ideas, and I want to know if my reader will throw it off. I don't remember all of them so i'll edit later if I do.
- These three girls came across three books, they start off with blank pages and they glow from time to time. When they do, they show each character parts of instuctions on how to cast a the spell. Or when they master this part of the instructions given, the book will go again.
Or may be this book will glow whenever they want. I'll try not to make it convenient.
-This one girl, she's a twelve year old assasin who works for a killer organization. She's been trained to kill ever since she was four. She lost her memory, ad this guy, who raised her for assasinations, was so mean to her and his other henchmen. She comes back to work for him, in return for memories. A year later she realized that some of her memories were false, the master didn't want to kill her, because she's the spitting image of her mother, he fell in love with.
I was just wondering if these are goof ideas, I lost a lot of readers because of this one part of my story that threw them off, so I had to delete it and write something better.
