Okay, let's OTD it

bookcraz wrote:Okay we have our olde Shoppe o' curiosities in a modern city, a little 'shack' if you will. That little shop amongst all the towering modern buildings happened to be the portal to magic of the world. Only few know of it, once inside you become adjusted to the magic; meaning it enables you to see magical beings, or what they really are.

In the middle of the skyscapered city of New York, streets are lined with the same old big brands and coffee shops; the same old copy-cat competition to grab the mindless people's minds. With the heavy steel and glass lined skies, down belong in a long narrow alley lives a shop. A shop just as curious as it's location.

Crimson brick walls and an old flapped sign, the name of the place written in a neat scrawl, it looked like it was plucked out of Medieval times, like it was lost in time. In fact, this looked like it was just dumped there... Maybe it was. The owner of this place? An old woman, crooked in face and wobbled in body; she runs the shop, the curious-filled shelves all different shapes and sizes. There's a single door at the back, large and wooden, though dusted over from lack of use. A huge dragon-shaped knocker hangs loosely, waiting to be used once again.

What is this place? The Ye Old Shoppe o' Curiosities. Welcome and take a look around, just don't touch me knockers.

Though obviously you can do more blah blah blah

I actually really love it.... this could be like a book idea.... two best friends on a scavenger hunt get lost, they go into the shop for directions only to see no one there. While waiting they happen to be over run by curiosity, where else to be curious than in the curiousity shop? The door knocker just seemed so harmless, once knocked your never the same. Your eyes change, you change. Your very DNA is altered, why? Magic.

'Ello?

by **OpenTheDoor** Sat Nov 27, 2010 2:33 pm

Okay, I honestly couldn't get half of that speech thing, but we'll work around it Very Happy

Pirates I feel like hasn't been done in a book lately, of course you have Pirates of the Carribean but nothing in a book. Also, you kinda need to put a twist on things and have something like a ship of pirates looking for treasure (trés cliché) but then the treasure isn't there but it's a portal to another place or something random... SPACE PIRATES!!!

But yeah, you need to find something unique that can grab the market... I should go on the Apprentice.

by **bookcrazI** Sat Nov 27, 2010 2:39 pm

yess.... I could be your partner... I be filled to the brim with ideas... Like that little curiosity shop thats a portal to another world inside our own! Razz

by **OpenTheDoor** Sat Nov 27, 2010 2:45 pm

I still love that Very Happy

And we could do the onexone on that to expand ideas etc. Wink
