Major Plot Devide? Share
Which is more interesting for a story? A crazy person who thinks that they're in the afterlife or someone who's in the afterlife and thinks they've gone crazy?
 Thanks for your help. Post up your own plot problems if you're not sure which way they could go. |

I think someone in the afterlife and thinks they've gone crazy. There was a movie like that though. I can't remember the name of it but Nicole Kidman played in it.

both are cool... if you've already decided about this or whatever, ignore me, but I think a crazy person who thinks they're in the afterlife would be cooler. actually, it might even be a little homorous. that's just me

I would with both or neither and have the reader make up his or her mind if the person is dead or crazy. Kinda like the movie K-Pax.

I think a story about a person who's in the afterlife but who thinks he's still alive (just slightly crazy) is a better idea. It's more unique.

I haven't seen any of those movies (hate Kidman) so I don't think I pulled anything from there, but it might have rubbed off anyway.
