Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I can't imagine having written every kind of story possible and getting bored!. I love fantasy which I've only attempted three thus far and my challange is always to finish what I start!. I started an urban fiction (which I didn't really like) but trudged through to the end!. I also decided to write a series (three shorts) which I tend not to do because I'm long winded!. I finished one and started the second while outlining the third!. I started one sci-fi fantasy mix which is fun because I enjoy the whole word building experience!. I then went back to my contemporary romance genre (which is what I was published under) and decided to make it a suspense!. I also had three more that I started but decided to scrap two of them and combine them with the other two which were moving along more succinctly!.
I've also begun getting into this whole erotica thing and have a strong feeling I'm going to dive into that field and just go crazy!. Ideally I have more characters and stories to tell and I just need to find the right genre for them!. So as I said I really can't imagine getting bored or having possibly covered everything considering there's Regency, Victorian, Medical thriller, political thriller, mysteries, shorts, chick lit, comedy, romance, science fiction, time travel, futuristic, contemporary, urban lit, novella, poetry, series, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, witches, warlocks, fey, mages, gods, and the like!. Even a seriel that you post on your website once a month should give you ideas!. Watching tv and doing your version of fan-fic!. I mean all I do is write, Answers is just another outlet for me to share!.

Read the newspaper; look around you!. If you pay attention, you will find your own story!. You say you are on here asking for ideas because you have tried almost every kind of story (though, as the previous answerer stated, I find that hard to believe) but you get bored!. If we give you your story idea, you will not be passionate about it and you will-gasp-get bored!.

Find your passion!. If you really love what you are writing, you will not get bored with it!. You may get frustrated (I can promise you that), but you will not get bored!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I see you are a nurse!. You could write about that with a different outlook!. You will be able to keep the respect of the readers by knowing the things that only real RN's know!. I have noticed a friend of this site, Samantha Fantasy, It is a great name!. It got my attention!. She says she is young author, with a wild imagination and is very upbeat and happy most of the time!. She finds it strange that other people should not be like this all the time or make fun of her for it!.

I can think of a thousand ways to write a story with a main character named Samantha Fantasy, and how she has a run-in at the hospital you work in!. But, the best way, or let me rephrase it, the way I write is to start with developing the characters!. Then go from there!. I write movies, but I would just add 300 more details for the novel!.

here is my idea:

The novel is a thriller/mystery/paranormal/religious


It is a story about a certain hospital in a little town that is special!. The people that die there do not really die, or do they!? You see when the dying patients get near death they call for a volunteer nurse!. A nurse named Samantha!. She is always happy, positive and full of joy!. Everyone loves her and she is the towns sheriff's little girl!. She always brings her big doll collection to cheer-up the sick patients!. Some of the patients are her age and some are older!. There is one thing that is very odd!. he collection of rage dolls are very much real to life looking!.

The first scene of set-up is this:

The patient is dying and the priest comes to say the last prayer with the patient!. In the middle of the prayer walks in Samantha, she is caring a large purse, with her doll collection!. She walks with an air of confidence and she is chewing gum!. She lets the priest say his peace with the old man as she sits in a nearby chair, playing with hair dolls hair!. The priest leaves and the old patient is lying almost to his death!.

Samantha comes along side of him and opens her purse!. Inside the purse is a few pictures!. They are pictures of the old patient on his youth!. Samantha asks the man to wake up!. The man does not respond!. Then Samantha asks again, wake up! the old man does not respond!. Then she suddenly changes into a very evil girl, she looks him in the eyes and is angry!. She grabs him by his hair and demands, "wake the hell up, old man! "!. The old man just moves around like a rage doll!!. It is strange and obvious that he is dead!. But the strangest things have only just begun!.!.!.!.!.
