True Writers Swali

I'm having major short story issues!!! Help!! Gurgh!!!

I have four ideas for a short story and all of them are dramas: the first one is about a girl from the 70's who leaves nyumbani and goes on the road and parties with bands. The sekunde one is about a homeless girl in the mwaka 1964 who falls into the whole Pop Art craze and becomes a follower of Andy Warhol.

The third one is about a girl who goes through anorexia/bulimia and tries to hide it from her mother. And the fourth one is about a six mwaka old girl who is slowly finding out that her big brother is a drug addict and has to go to rehab. I need help guys!! Serious help! If wewe want me to, I'll write all four, but which one do I do first!!! GAHH!!!

the first idea reminds me of the movie almost famous. i approve of it.
the sekunde idea is very cool. i would reccommend wewe do plenty of research, but i approve.
the third one is ok, if not a little familiar with the whole eating disorder one.
the third story is dark sounding. i like that. be careful, and also research to get the twisted mind feel of the brother.
good luck! hope this helps!

I have been wanting to watch Almost Famous, but I keep forgetting!!! I am a shabiki of learning about Warhol because he's so...different. Also, I just upendo the 60's pop culture and stuff. The third one is just for girls. I know a lot behind eating disorders, even though I haven't actually dealt with them, I still find them so moyo wrenching and sad. The fourth one hit me like a friggin' brick! I just thought,"You know, it's so uncommon, yet very much common. People can relate and yet they can't even imagine the pain." That's how I want it to be. And yes, I research a lot and mostly just for fun, so I will get right to it soon!

The Pop Craze: this one interests me the most. Mainly because I am a serious art lover and art addict.
Almost Famous Band: That sounds pretty interesting too. I would vote for this one and Pop Craze. The others sound great and I would upendo to read them but Pop Craze and Almost Famous interest me the most.

The drug addict brother and the 6 mwaka old sounds a but harsh, I like it when oil kids have that blessed ignorance. Not knowing anything especially something that could dramatize then for

Yes but it shows that it's real. I mean think about it: wewe can't hide everything from children no matter how hard wewe try and when they're older and teens/young adults, when wewe finaly tell them the truth after lying to them so many years, they're gonna hate wewe for it. I mean, young children deal with different stuff everyday. It paints a portrait of how imperfect life really is.

True. Very true. Yet, kids eventually find out and then they ask maswali about it. I mean, look at this world we live in. Poor kids.

The ones that interest me the most so far are:

1. Almost Famous idea
2. Pop Art
3. Older brother- drug addict

Okay, so. About the Almost Famous idea, that could be a really amazing story, if wewe have the research and time. Some legendary bands are: The Beatles, The Eagles, The Rolling Stones, Queen, and Led Zeppelin.

About the Pop Art craze, wewe might have to do a lot of research on what life was being homeless in 1964, how a lot of people were homeless then, how Pop Art became a craze, and basically a little bit of history on Andy Warhol, but not too much.

I wouldn't do the one about the girl who goes through anorexia..

About the girl finding out that her older brother is a drug addict and has to go through rehab, that could be a pretty interesting and moving story. wewe could write from the perspective of the young girl....yeah, that would be the best way to songesha people. So...maybe, the girl sees his brother out drinking and smoking with his friends. Then, his brother and his Marafiki shove her away, throw her to the ground, tell her to get away. wewe write the rest. I'm sure it will be great.

I upendo groupie 70's stories and half of the bands wewe alisema up there I completely love, esp Zep! I upendo hearing tales about the 1960's and how everyone was changing and rebelling and protesting and the whole feminist and sexual revolution. It's so fascinating!!! The anorexia one I wanted to write because it's a problem and I really want to become a psychologist one siku and help girls like that and I have done a lot of kusoma about anorexia and it's one of those subjects that is disturbing yet wewe wanna reach out help people like that. The girl story is because of what I just told alicia. Little kids do go through things, no matter how they're parents shelter them.

It gives wewe a lot of inspiration. I remember watching Finding Neverland when I was young and I wrote two short stories while watching that movie. It helped inspire me to write.
