You guys let me know where you prefer to be placed. Please. 🙂
I already know what diobolic Dio is wanting to do.
I hope everyone is having a good day. 
I have no preference. |

I am doing a little 'archive diving' today,
and taking a look at story ideas from last year's writer's threads.
I may bring a couple of them here
to inspire some more 'theme discussion'. 🙂
Last year we did a sort of 'cursed town' story,
with other pretty cool elements mixed in.
It was somewhat inspired by the classic film
"It's a Wonderful Life".
Here is the link to it,
if you would like to check it out Tanith and @georgcuro ....

The week has been a frantic one, building up toward our Staff Development Day on Monday, the summit of frantic-ness. However, I was toying with the idea of a "mysterious present" idea as a story element. We've all seen that "one present" that we ache to rip the paper off of. Ever had that feature in one of the tet's festive tales? |

The week has been a frantic one, building up toward our Staff Development Day on Monday, the summit of frantic-ness.----- Got it! Keeping things moving along here, but not rushing any of you guys. Take care of you! Hope that cold is all gone by now, and that next week goes good for you! Check in with us as you can. 
However, I was toying with the idea of a "mysterious present" idea as a story element. We've all seen that "one present" that we ache to rip the paper off of.---- Ohhh, I like that! Awesome suggestion, and I'll get that into our theme list. 😄
Ever had that feature in one of the tet's festive tales?---- Not that I know of! |

What we have for theme ideas so far :
1. "A Satanic Santa or an Evil Elf? Maybe a rowdy reindeer??" --- docpain2
2. "An angel of death comes to collect a soul(s)." ----diobolic Dio
3. "A mysterious present.
One present that we ache to rip the paper off of." ---- Tanith
That's 3 ideas/suggestions, authors.
I like them all.
And I have ideas to go with each one,
(submitting as a fellow brainstorming writer only 😉)
that I will post next.
But really want to hear more from all of YOU guys.

1. Looking at Captain America docpain2 's "Satanic Santa",
and @georgcuro 's "Howdy" with appropriate tune....
(suggesting some kind of demonic possession for our theme there, Georg...I mean...Cord?
If you were, I will add it to the official list!)
....I was thinking of an ordinary average malcontent misfit sitting at home,
at X-mas time watchin' tv
and thinking evil thoughts about how he hates everything and everyone!
A demon hears those thoughts!
A possession ensues!
The malcontent dons black garb with bright red trim,
becomes an 'anti-santy claus,
and goes a murder mission!
With the help of the demon in whatever ever ways.
('carnivorous caribou' and 'vicious lil goth elven-like helper' optional of course. )
Could mix a more reality based story with touches of the fantastic supernatural.....that maybe no one is aware of except for the murderer and reader.
2. I really like Tanith 's "mysterious present" idea! It has a Pandora's Box feel for me.
And I have been thinking about diobolic Dio's "angel of death" thing. Got some ideas about both of those too. They could possibly intersect as well.
Lol, I gotta stop for tonight. It's been a day. 🙂

Perhaos there is someone who never had a good Christmas and wants revenge on someone, perhaps even society for that

I've been thinking of an empty diner on Christmas Eve,
a FEW characters enter,
people who are good and bad.
They are all alone on X-mas eve for different reasons.
Good and bad reasons, that suit each person.
They don't know it,
but amongst them there is an angel of death,
that will take one them that night.
Take to wherever they are destined to be.
"Up...or Down".
There is a mysterious 'Christmas present' in the dining room.
It gets opened...because it IS irresistible!
There is something in it for each of them.
You can imagine a number of possibilities here,
and the individual's backstories that could go with it....and so on ....
This is just me thinkin' out loud. 🙂
I get crazy stuff in my head that just has to come out, lol.😄
And I really love sharing creative thoughts with all of you guys,
and devouring everything you all bring!  🖋
These stories are NEVER planned out or outlined,
every chapter is 'mysterious, unknown and spontaneous'...more or less.😊😉 |

I like your scenario, Madam Wolf! My internet's been being...well, my internet this weekend so this is the first chance I've had to pop in and add my two cents.

Hope the internet starts playing nice soon!🙂
I'll be back later with an updated themes list,
and the game plan for the epilogue.
(And maybe our "writer's chapters order" also.)
Everyone have a good day. 🙂 |
