Idea for a Novel

7 Years Ago


I have an idea for a novel, just thought to share and see what you guys think!

Its a survival story where the main character is adrift at sea with supplies, pens and journals. She has no idea what has happened (maybe she had a head injury?) and the first half is about her surviving on the boat. During this, she has a hallucination about an angel called Morpheus.
When the main character finds land, she finds that it is the apocalypse. Maybe there is a supernatural, demonic twist?

This is going to take a long time to write and it'll be my first time doing a novel. If you guys have better ideas, I would love to hear your input.

That sounds very interesting! I agree, however, it sounds like a rather long project. Best of luck with it! If I have any ideas to add or enhance yours, I'll reply.

Sounds like a great start! I advise you to do a bunch of research on the topic. Find what books are the most popular in that genre and what tropes are used the most.
Maybe it will help you to get started.
