Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
All good fictional stories are a combination of good vs evil and someone meets special someone - see Shakespeare, Bible, LOR, H!. Potter etc!. So that's your starting point!. Where the originality comes in is your characters and where you place them!. The more hopeless the position the better - they will manage in the end, somehow!.

Please, please, please do not go near vampires or werewolves - very not original at present!.

Cloning of humans opens some interesting possibilities!. Could someone find a bone of an ancient do-gooder or do-badder (Jesus, Gngis Khan, Stalin - use your imagination) and clone that person, treat him the way the original version was treated in childhood and try to recreate history!. Of course, it all goes wrong when Hero discovers plot and with help from Heroine, saves the day!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A story in which a group of Americans and another group of fanatic Communists get put back in time shortly before the second world war!. Both groups have modern day vehicles and weaponry with them when they go back and both soon discover what must be done to get back!. They are faced with a choice - Interfere for whatever their motives are or return to their own time!.

Or some variation of the theme!. That's just something a friend and I were discussing that we though would be an interesting scenario!. If you can imagine 21st century craft such as the F-35 and F-22 as well as other things up against WWII era weapons and stuff!.!.!. It'd make an interesting novel or movie!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would be one of those friends who suck who don't get writers block haha!.!.!.!.!.Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
