Question: Hi im writing a book!! and am stuck on the characters !!?
im writing a book!.!.and i don't know know what the main character should be called!.
p!.s by the way the main character is a 12 yr old girl!. turing into a teen and her life is just a big mess!.

Chapter 1

Normal, what is normal!. Living happy ever after!. Yeah right there is no such thing as happy ever after only the real world!. And the real world sucks!. In the real world there is no where you can hide!. You have to stick it out , no matter how bad it is!. But to tell you to tell you the truth there is people who have it worse then us!. But when your going through something extremely bad , you think that there is no one in the world who understands your pain!. But there is always someone who will understand you ,to tell you the truth they are probably going through the same thing as you!. When your going trough a bad patch there is always someone to talk to, don’t think of the worse way out!. And don’t be afraid that you think you are being a snitch , because you are only doing what is best for you!.

I have tried everything , but nothing works , I just want o get away from this torture!. But there is no way out I have tried everything, tried telling , tried taking my life did any of those things work!? NO! It just made it worse …!.there is nobody in the world that can feel what I am going through!. First I though home was the answer , but home was just as worse!. There is no point in living !.!.what is the point of living if your unhappy and your life is in shambles!. Why does everything happen to me …!.well I know the answer !.!.because I am bad luck …I am the reason that my parent fight!. I am the reason for everything!. Why did god even make me … I am just bad luck to everyone!. I have no money!. !.no friends …no where to turn…no one there to catch me if I fall!. People always tell me that life is full of choices… Life is always hard!. Well you got that right!. Life is always hard, miserable, gloomy and dark!. Life is full of horrible surprises for me!. Never nice surprises!. My mum says its because I am an EVIL GIRL!. And bad things happen to evil girls!. But what I don’t understand is that she does evil things , but I get punished for it!. But why wont mum understand that life is full of consequences and that if she makes a mistake she should not punish me!. Its not fair!. Life is like a shadow that you can never get rid of!. A dark shadow that always follows your every move!. I am still young and I don’t deserve to go through this torture!.


I’ve always been the one that cleaned up after mum!. When she came back after a party with a hangover …I was the one who done everything…… I was there when she cut herself with a knife… I was through everything and I still will be… but if she carries on this way I wont!. Mum always makes me feel so small and unsafe!. Well there is dad but that is a complete different story!.

I want to get away from this torture…but I have no where to hide…no where to run!. All I want is a little a bit of freedom …!.!. But I never got that…!.because I’ve always had to look after mum!. First of all I was happy looking after mum…!.thinking it was a game a joke maybe…!.!.I thought mum was treating me like an adult!. But then I figured it out that it wasn’t any of those things it was real…!. Real life!.

Hi,

I think you need to decide where and when the story takes place and what the final outcome will be!. Reading Chapter one I would be guessing at now in some run down city housing estate!.!.!.!.

Have a read of Blink by Andrea Badenoch, Main character is a girl but the story starts in the future (well now) where she as done well for her self and then reflects on her past in the 1960's from a coal mining town!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ok I couldnt make it through the first paragraph of your "book"!. Please improve spelling/grammar/tone/style etc or I can tell you now this will never even get completed let alone published!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i do not consider this to be a bad comment, it's simply an expression of my opinion

i got bored after the first paragraph, plus you have some spelling mistakes
people don't just write books like that, they plan it before they do, how it's going to start, the mid-point, the climax, the end!. Maybe you should do something like thatWww@QuestionHome@Com
