Also, Clara's story doesn't have to have a happy ending, or even a neat finish...Also, I know this may sound a little apathetic, but to have a good book, you need some love and at least one death. You have death, but do you have love? (and not even romantic, just a friend or a pet or something she can love, something she can hang onto after she lost her parents). If you hate my ideas, please ignore them, because I'm am definitely not a writer, just a reader and a poet :)<br /><br />OH also, you probably don't want to borrow ideas for story, since might want your own story plot to be your idea, but if Clara did have a friend, maybe Clara dies, and the story is the friend telling Clara's story in the form of a flashback, and ending with some closing words for Clara(eulogy type closing), and how Clara changed the friend's life or something along that line. <br /><br />Hope this long message helps!a_romatherapyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550065430513361868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707838815078964130.post-5422645798972846022010-08-01T17:49:30.243-07:002010-08-01T17:49:30.243-07:00I think that it's real, not hopeful.

Keep Clara on a shelf somewhere and keep writing! <br /><br />I love that you share your setbacks and ideas with us!Mrs. DeRapshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17412356257110198452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707838815078964130.post-52977018822531344472010-08-01T17:29:36.146-07:002010-08-01T17:29:36.146-07:00It's not too hopeful! Sometimes you just need ...It's not too hopeful! Sometimes you just need a break from what you're currenlty writing. Maybe you need time to think of something great for your story.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09192402231637972506noreply@blogger.com
