She was sixteen and he was twenty five when they first met. Falling in love with an older guy has never been part of her life plan but plans sometimes don't turn out the way they are expected to. But this doesn't mean that your life would be dragged into a black hole. Elise came from a 21st century aristocrat family and Daniel from an unsolved puzzle. She lived in a house with twelve rooms and he lived in any place that would allow him to stay the night. She looked up to Hepburn and he looked up to Cobain. They were just two beings from entirely different worlds. This is no Romeo and Juliet but definitely original. This is a story of a collision between two worlds that resulted entirely in its own way.
Writer's block. So sorry.

Sounds like a promising start. I think you should leave it up to your readers to decide whether something is original or not, though. Not that there's anything bad about being about being derivative; most of my favourite books and movies contain references to (and borrow plot points from) other people's stuff. If nothing else, it's a nice way of paying homage to other works that you've enjoyed, and it'll also show people how well-read you are.
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, it's nice to see you back to writing after a dry spell of almost a year. Like I said, you've got a gift, so keep it up.
I dont mean original as in original. Maybe something like pure love in a way that they are not trying to be Romeo and Juliet. I must've projected the wrong idea. Sorry. And thanks Shaun :)
