Hi. I'm going to write a story about a guy that's been a depressed robot for a few years who meets a failed normie 17/18 year old girl who's mentally ill and has abusive parents. I kind of want to give the robot an illness that he hides from the girl and he kinda helps her out with getting a Chad that she's liked for a while and living a normal life despite it hurting him because he likes her.
Sounds good? What could make it more dramatic?
DONT CRITICIZE ME WE ALL START SOMEWHERE I'm A 19 year old grill and I love YA

uninspired bait/10
Tyler Rodriguez
It's not bait I actually want to write.
Xavier Ward
cancer is hot in YA lately. diabetes might be cool too
David Ward
I need a good twist though. I want it to be high concept :( Cancer is typical Diabetes is just whatever

Carson Robinson
Psoriasis. It destroys his self esteem and maintains his robot status, even though it doesn't look that bad.
I'd like to add that I find your book's concept very depressing and I wouldn't have read it as a teenager.
Bentley Nelson
check out the todd solondz movie warhorse, or any of his movies really
Oliver Richardson
It will have a good ending though. I'm all about the power of love and friendship. I just want to write about how not everyone is living the typical teenage life and how depression isn't attractive.
Julian Murphy

Brody King
Stop. How could I make this unique other than having the guy die or commit suicide at the end which is cliche.
Does anyone know what high concept is?

No I want the robot to be somewhat attractive
Colton Phillips
If he was somewha attractive, he wouldn't be a robot.
Do you even /r9k/ ?
Nathaniel Fisher
if he can talk to girls he's a fucking normie
Grayson Harris
>roasties in charge of understanding robothood
Brody Watson
Not an illness but he has a fucked up sexuality, he has to think about weird fucked up shit (extreme shit, opposite sexuality) to fuck her
Tyler Bailey
what about multiple sclerosis?
Brody Johnson
>tell me if it sounds good >what could make it more better? >don't criticise me
Um. What?
Bentley Fisher
what about it making him feel like a total faggot that he helps a girl he likes get a another man? What about him getting all kinds of fucked up because of her? What about describe his passions, and how she gave them an extra spark? What about people having a negative view of him, yet he's oblivious/tries not to think about it? If the latter, you could have him meltdown when the fact occasionally hits him. What about explain exactly what's going in the girl, since you are one? etc
Tyler Sanchez
I appreciate your response but your grammar is making it hard to understand...
William Bailey
You know that looks are only part of what COULD make someone a robot? Elliot Rodger wasn't ugly. He was autistic.
Landon Torres
>but your grammar is making it hard to understand.. Jesus fuck, you're nitpickity. I skimmed through it, and I saw nothing wrong.
>What about him
What if you make him do this and that
>What about people having a negative view of him
what if, in your novel, people (other people) have a negative view of him
>what about explain exactly what's going on
you (the writer) can explain exactly what's going on etc
Nathaniel Cooper
You make zero sense. Lol
Josiah Torres
Syphilis is overdue a sexy resurgence, become a pioneer OP
Owen Brown
Is this bait?
Aaron Adams
No. I'm looking for how I can make the plot more interesting. Not a FUCKING disease
Mason Rivera
With a plot as boring as that, just make sure you delve into his insights. Make both of them fleshed out. Make sure the girl is not just some shitty MPDG.
Jayden Barnes
What about making your protagonist a coprophiliac, in one scene you could have your protagonist eat the girl's turds in a fit of perfect ecstasy
Christian Powell
how do I make the plot interesting? There's no spark
Lucas Murphy
>"Lol" at the end of a sentence
Kayden King
I don't know, make the Chad a close friend of his or something.
Justin King
OP
hey OP
Give your protagonist cerebral palsy
Guaranteed tear jerker
Landon Thompson
Literally read the post I made

Brayden Garcia
How about you fucking kill yourself you entitled faggot, jesus christ.
Lincoln Ross
Okay so let me explain what I'm looking for
So high concept books are able to be summarized in a sentence. My favorite show the vampire diaries can be summarized as a girl falls in love with two vampire brothers. So it's not something mundane.
or a book where a girl goes to a school for delinquents
Something edgy idk My story needs an edge A mystery A goal Idk
Owen Clark
Your protagonist should be addicted to masturbation. Whenever he's alone he should jack off and cry about how he can't stop jacking off. Deep stuff.
Jayden Brooks
>favorite show the vampire diaries
Anonette.....
Kayden Martin
Just help with my story What could make it unique?
Kevin Parker
Ok. I'll make another post since you ignored my other one.
Add some quirky characters in the story. Make the protagonist quirky. Make the girl quirky. Make the protagonist a nazi. Make him a politician trying to become a new Hitler.
Jack Reyes
Your main character should be quadriplegic and in a sentient wheelchair that teaches him about love
Call it Faster Than The Speed Of Love
Thank me later
Colton Lee
I like it. Give this Anonette (OP) more material.
Adam Butler
>So it's not something mundane.
Vampires made mundane are the most mundane shit of the past decade
Easton Cruz
Holy...I want more...
Matthew Russell
Make your main character an autistic cuckold with a hook for a hand and a dick for an ear
Chase Collins
Im talking about the twist is the vampires opposed to a typical love triangle between stupid children
Or the hunger games. That's high concept
Or a girl waking up on weeks before a guy at her school commits suicide and her goal is to prevent him from doing so
Something edgy but realistic ugh Give me material
Asher Anderson
>be me, yesterday >finally start to believe that women can write, and can have original ideas >this Anonette here convinces me otherwise
This is borderline middleschool tier.
Jacob Stewart
Oh well Help me out
Angel Thomas
Read John Green for inspiration. I remember back to some girl in middleschool telling me about her story. It was something about a girl dying of cancer, and her mom killing herself afterwards. Work on that.
Tyler Flores
Holy shit. That's not what I asked for.
Gavin Bailey
Why is this board filled with naked women?
Bentley Robinson
Those aren't women.
Austin Reed
The most common complaint you're going to receive is being another dumb woman telling all the kids that the most important thing in life is your relationship status
Ethan Price
No. I'm trying to stress that friendship is important and being alone doesn't mean you're not human.
Aiden Baker
>friendship is important >being alone doesn't mean you're not human Don't those two contradict each other?
Isaiah Flores
Two words, hun: Juvenile Alzheimer's. Very rare and very dank. They'll lap it up. He knows who the girl is but he's forgotten who HE is. The whole time he thought she was his sister (who had actually died at birth), which explains why be never makes sexual advances on her. She, who had felt rejected, realizes the truth too late. She gets the Alzheimer bug from him (from using the same toilet seat in quick succession) and becomes incontinent (verbally and otherwise). Meanwhile he gets an experimental drug and his memory, with the side effect of forgetting all about her (and never being able to use a toilet seat again). She, on the other hand, remembers him but doesn't remember why he's forgotten her, which leaves her in a state of constant bafflement (and incontinence). She dies years later of oniric necrosis. In a deus ex machina epilogue, the goddess Artemis appears and explains hit she's run out of arrows, this being the sole reason why she doesn't inflict more illnesses on those two, and not that they didn't deserve them. This should be enough for the first installment of the series.

Daniel Stewart
No. Humans are social creatures however, people shouldn't be labeled freaky or weird automatically for not having any because you don't know what they're going through.
Second, people need to realize that platonic relationships are important. How will you be a good SO if you're a terrible friend?
Jaxson Perez
Make him, her, and chad, all secretive trannies, who have their double lives, and then it turns out the tranny chad falls inlove with the tranny robot, and than they meet the tranny girl, and they all become mormons, and she is the husband and they are the wives
Lincoln Lewis
After the girl and chad begin dating, one evening they invite the robot to dinner to third wheel. Before dessert (or after, or during appetizers... i dunno) they turn to him and tell him they are getting married, and want to know if he will be their best man.
At the wedding, the best man, is also the ring bearer, and when asked if there are any objections to the wedding, the robot objects, gets and makes a long speech professing his true love and what he has been through for the girl.
Everyone begins hysterically laughing for minutes, even the priest, children, old folks are taking out their teeth and crying.
The robot grabs the wife to be and runs out the door, and puts her in the trunk of his car, and speeds off, and then the book turns into a nation wide manhunt, while the robot has a lolita like experience with the girl, driving across the country to famous landmarks, and acting as if they are a couple, while her hands are tied up and such.
The title can be: When a Robot Malfunctions. Or, Robotic Malfunction

>bringing Veeky Forums terms into the real world
Daniel Campbell
I would suggest cancer, but the plot is tragic enough.
Joshua Williams
Its applicable, people dont need to know that there is a preciseish other meaning to the term robot and malfunction, they would read the story, and see how the character acts robotic, and perhaps see the mechanical aspects of humanity, potential heartlessness, how a person can change just like that, bringing to mind the idea of robots, the idea of malfunctioning. You are a cunt, the title is perfect
Ryan Carter
How about "Dr. Steinensteins Robot"
William Brooks
STOP. IF YOU HAVE SEEN THIS POST IGNORE THIS THREAD. THERE ARE NO WOMAN HERE ( I KNOW YOU THINK THERE ARE). IGNORE THIS THREAD. IGNORE THIS BAIT THREAD. IGNORE. MOVE ON. SHITPOST SOMEWHERE ELSE. ANNIHILATE CANCER ON SIGHT. MPVE ALONG.
David Bell
That's really edgy. I'm OP by the way. I picture the robot being shot on sight at the end though and I wanted him to have a good ending. He suffered enough.
Aaron Cruz
YES THERE ARE WOMAN HERE
Samuel Young
No offence, but your story is gonna suck le monke balls.
Michael Lee
'Malfunction' would honestly work quite well.
David Martin
but it's practice though I wasn't going to try and publish.
Hunter Harris
MOVE ALONG CITIZENS. BAIT THREAD, NOTHING TO SEE HERE. RISE ABOVE YOUR PRIMAL INSTINCTS AND ABANDON THREAD IN PURSUIT OF KNOWLEDGE.
