Then writingforums should do an open novel about God and his cronies gallivanting about the psychedelic religious time and space continuum bringing sarcasm and bitterness throughout the known universe.

Why don't you have the character find himself in the desert... doesn't necessarily have to have a quest thing going on, just a situation and a need to change.

It sounds like there are a lot of things you might want to look into before putting together your own story like this. You need to start reading seriously and frequently. You need to analyze what you're reading and why it works. Once you get a good feel for what the genre is all about, maybe then start thinking and planning your own story. From my own personal opinion, I would set off writing a story of any lengthy size before getting a very serious grip on what the genre is all about.
