Ok, I've searched around, but I can't find any ploty sharing threads or similar. This is based on the hugely popular 'Adopt-a-Plot' thread found on NaNo, and I thought it could be useful here - especially in the fiction forum, when plots can inspire, motivate and stir the imagination. Basically, all it is, is a plot dumping ground, for ideas and plots you don't want to use or just thought of. They can be left for other people to use and develop. I hope this proves to be as much use as it is in NaNo, and has been for me.
Lots of love and kisses.

I think I'll begin...
The moral ethics of this plot are not original and it's just sketchy, but I should think it should prove to be of inspiration to someone. It's about power, corruption and eventually insanity, all based on a modern day scenario for the reader to relate to. Enjoy!

The idea is of a distant village, somewhere in the outbacks of America. (Brit speaking!) It is not densely populated, with only sparse visitors and 500 miles to the nearest town. The village's pride is it's gas filling station, which increases the profit of the little economy. The people are pretty far-gone and unfamiliar to modern western rituals. One day, a cowboy (sounds cheesy) comes across a small child who claims to have come from a tribe somewhere in the desert. The only problemo with this little girl is that she has two wings protruding out her back and her skin is dark-greyish. The cowboy returns back to the village and gives her to the sheriff (who is gay but married to his unknowing wifey), and they wait until the next paasing wagon comes to the village, so that they can get a lift into the nearest town/city and make millions out of her. In that time, people gradually find out about her and begin to worship her. This drives them to madness and corruption and there are sacrafices made etc.
Meanwhile throughout this story there is another, of a truck driver driving through a desert. The last scene is of him driving into the village and is burnt and wrecked. There is no one there. He gets out and looks round, and as he looks in the sun, he thinks he can make out a small fgure with wings running, then taking of and flying into the sun.

What do you guys think? If it's inspiration to anyone feel free to use parts of it. I got plenty-a-more stories coming!

love maia (you know the drift....)

Hello, maia,

First, let me take this oppurtunity to give you a late welcome to the forums. I'm sure you will enjoy yourself here and find it as useful as I have.

There is a thread called adopt-a-plot that can be found here. It is also based on the same idea from Nano. Just thought I would mention it, seeing how it has slipped back quite a few pages and isn't that noticeable any longer.
