I think most writers have been slammed in the face by a great idea for a novel, but due to life and current WIPs they end up on the back burner for a few months (years). I thought I'd share a few ideas I haven't really dug into yet but am hoping to, and invite others share their own. My main back burner novels are:
- The daughter of a convicted serial killer and the daughter of one of her father's victims team up to rescue the former's kidnapped brother.
- A newly graduated twenty-something year old god is assigned a local forest preserve as his domain. When the forest is threatened by a development project he must protect it from greedy executives and overambitious gods alike.
- A gay teenager plots to escape from a Christian conversion therapy camp in Costa Rica, only to end up lost in the jungles with a fellow queer campmate.
- A tortured ghost and cinnamon bun loving zombie, once the body and soul of the same individual, team up for wacky adventures on the way to the afterlife.
- A first century historical novel centered on a young half-Roman, half Iceni warrior who joins Boudicca's rebellion against the Roman occupation of Britain.
