Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I am just guessing that your characters are going to still be in school right!? I say this since most writers write about stuff they know and you being 13 it makes sense!.
This being so!.!.!. have your main character come into their ability(magic) with the onset of puberty!. Odd things start happening especially when they are angry or happy!. Emotions always add extra oomph!.

Now this person isn't going to a magic school so don't worry about copying Harry Potter!. They are 13!.!.!. so have them be dealing with regular 13 year old things, but when his/her emotions come into play odd things happen!. When they finally decide to talk to their parents about it !.!. it comes out that its an ability that everyone in the family has but they cover it up and keep it secret because they don't want to be forced to solve the worlds problems (like it can ever happen) with magic!.
You can add the excitement of the situations that cause magic to be used!.!.!. if any part of this sounds promising!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you want to write a story, then you have to think of it yourself!. The ideas you get off yahoo are only going to be the ones that people have rejected themselves, because if the ideas were any good then they'd be writing it themselves!.
You like the idea of magic and wizards, so start there!. Now think of where you want most of the story to be set, make up a main character and a few others, and you're on your way!. I can't really help anymore than that because if you want to a write a story you can call your own, then you have to think of the idea on your own!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I started writing my novel at 13 and have exactly the same interest in you!. Something magical means something completely out of this world!. I liked that very much because it means that I can do whatever I want, create whatever character I want, anything I want!. It's your imagination that's limiting you here if you want to write fantasy!.

Take this for example: Little red riding hood went down to her grandma's house, got nearly eaten up by a wolf but is saved by a woodcutter!. Let's just say you want your story to be something like that!. You can change it to be something else but roughly following the plot!. Here's a sample paragraph by me:

Somewhere out in the nothingness, Hood flitted in and out of the dark shadows caused by Wolfeness, an unnamed hour in the night where the werewolves emerge into the waning moonlight!. Ternail had told her; countless of times, never, never explore the forest of Sagle at this unfortunate hour!. But Hood never, never listened!. She needed to send a message to the old witch quickly!. The battle was drawing near; the message must be delivered or else every creature, mortal or immortal will die!.
