Discarded Story Ideas
So I had this idea pop into my head one time - what if a couple of celebrities wanted to do something dangerous and illegal like robbing a bank, but wanted to make sure they had an alibi. Obviously they hire some lookalikes to hang around their villa and give the paparazzi something to photograph while they're shoving guns in people's faces. Car chase, fake hostage drama, switcheroo, mistaken identity double-cross and happy ending.
Hilarity ensues. Or tragedy. I dunno, I'm never going to write it. I have notepads FULL of ideas from thirty years ago that I'm never going to turn into stories.
So I'm giving this idea up to the ether.
Anyone else have an idea for a story that's been cluttering up the back of your mind forever, well here's your chance to set it free.
