A few days ago, I started thinking about a story to write and I'm currently in the process of fleshing the story out and thought to come out with a description for my series.
Sadly, nothing comes to my mind. so help?
What others said are worthy of taking note of, just sharing how I made mine. It only consists of two parts:
1) The “plot” that had triggered everything. It’s that moment when you thought, “what if?” Don’t put the twists, just the surface idea (and that should be very twisty indeed to catch your attention to the point of writing it)
2) The “promise”. It’s the part where you put in vague words the events of your story. Even if you’re fleshing out, you must still have an inkling of how it should be, so base your 2nd part in the “direction of the journey”.
As an example, ahem ahem, I’ll put my synopsis here as reference:
The Cannon Fodders Sect
OP body.
Simple mind.
Normal transmigrator.
Whichever way you look at it, aren't these a recipe for disaster? Fan Shuangxi did not expect she will transmigrate one day, even more so in a novel series she heard but never read. What’s more tragic is it’s a BL universe! Lah! As a woman who transmigrated wouldn’t that mean she’s going to be a cannon fodder?!
Granny: Do not worry, my lady. You can still return home
Shuangxi: Please return me home ಥ﹏ಥ
Granny: There is one tiny condition
Shuangxi: Tell me, I’ll do it!
Granny: You have to first give birth to the young heir of the clan
Shuangxi: ...
Shuangxi: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
With neither cold or crafty ideas nor godly skills in medicine and business, this average heroine will have to strive hard to survive in a world where beautiful men are paired with beautiful men and women who get in the way are eliminated!
Hope that helps and don’t give up!
