Okay since i've been little my mom has completly brainwashed me and made me scared of people so i've never wanted to talk to people and have always been shy. Now i'm 14 starting high school and i have a few friends, but not as much as all the other girls. heres my story:

In 5th grade i met my best friend Brooke. We did EVERYTHING together until she transfered schools in the middle of 7th grade, we kept in contact but we werent as good of friends. Then in my class i met a girl named Liz and we became good friends. Now we're all in high school and Brooke and Liz and like best friends. I was JUST hanging out with both of them and they were talking about their plans for homecoming and how they were going to a friends house to take pictures and eat dinner then go to the dance with like 30 other people and they never even invited me and i was sitting RIGHT there. Then they were talking about like character duo day where you dress up as like spongebob and patrick with someone else and they were talking about doing that together when i, again, was sitting RIGHT THERE. But what my point is how can i meet people so that i can have a "best friend" cause it's awkward walking around the halls and stuff alone.. :l i just don't know what to do.

Don't worry. As you get older that sort of thing with so-called friends happens less and if it does happen, it won't even bother you. High school can be hard - my school days were something I wanted to get over and done with. Now, I regret it. Not as much on a social level, that sorts itself out later on anyway, but I do wish I had learnt more.

Are there any clubs at school you can join? That way you can meet up with people who have the same interests as you.

Good luck with it!

the link above was my previous plan


Book One: Death Comes To Town- Brooke Wyatt leaves the town of New York for some peace and moves to the town of Riverview to be with her sister, Jill. When she gets their she strikes a friendship with her sister's roommate Alexz. One mysterious night her sister goes missing and the two's search leads them to unexpected love and secrets that wont stay dead. But someone is watching their every move and sets them up for a deadly game of cat and mouse.

Book Two : Secrets Of The Dead- When Brooke and Alex find Jill dead and come with an encounter with her murderer from the previous book they burn her down in a warehouse during their fight.Brooke now having no family as she never met her mother and her father dead she begins feeling alone. Now with summer over, Brooke heads to high school as a senior and Alex becoming a inspiring actress. Then Brooke gets sent burned newspaper clippings that date over 20 years ago.
( This book will feature no deaths but more mystery)

Book Three: Three's A Charm. Brooke pieces all the newspaper clippings together. The pieces lead to a dead teenager named " Carrie Stevens". She and her new friend Eve begin their obsessive journey on finding out who this girl is. Elsewhere Alexz begins taping her show in Miami but during a filming what they thought was fake becomes reality. Someone has followed her to Miami and wants her dead.

Book 4: Scream for Me 4 Times. Part One ( This book will be the turning point as i planned it out to be similar to the Scream Film Series. As their have been no film to book to remake i might be the first to do this.)
Secret we all have some dont we. Brooke reveals why she left New York. Eve is pregnant by her lover. Alexz wanted Jill dead so she would become the lead on the show.( Jill had worked with Alexz on the show.)
Brooke is being stalked by some stranger, Alexz career begins fading away when she meets Officer Riley and bond. Eve's end of the year party is killer when someone crashes in.

Book 4 Part Two: Scream Till We Die. Eve is found dead and Brooke leaves Riverview only to be blackmailed to stay. When Alexz figures out who Carrie Stevens is she fly's back to Riverview to be interrupted. This killer could it be the same as the one who killed Jill or is it someone they know very close ?

Book 5: Scream, My Love. Alexz goes missing but not before sending a tape to Brooke on who Carrie is. Carrie was a maniac who murdered her classmates only to be burned down by her parents in the same warehouse Brooke burned Jill's killer. Brooke finds a shocking trith.

Final Book: Overture. ( This Concludes the Scream Remake and is the final book that will include Brooke and Alexz.)
Brooke finds out her mother is actually Carrie Stevens is her mother. Carrie being 18 at the time of her death, had Jill first when she was 16 and 18 when she had Brooke. But Carrie had one more child . Brooke has a twin named Sidney Stevens. Brooke comes to battle with Sidney fighting for the mother they never had. Just when you think nothing can happen, one more blow is dealt to the both of them.

Possible Book 7 and 8. This would take a year after. Brooke and Sidney died during their fight. Then Ella Simms begins having dreams about this mysterious burned figure. That burned figure having been Carrie and she never died she escaped the deadly fire. This idea will last for two books and conclued the series forever with Brooke having a surprise appearance in Book 8 if i feel this series has spunk. Ella is having these dreams because her father is alsi Brooke;s father but they don't share the same mother. And Carrie will not stand for anyone in her family except her.
Carrie and her "unknown" partner married Carrie before she went psycho at the age of 16 but kept it a secret. When CARRIE died her partner had one more child before she becomes a orphan becasue her father dies of attempted suicide.
Book 7 will be called Nightmare ON Ella's Street
and Book 8 will be tentatively titled Nightmare On Halloween. As seven will remake nightmare on elm street and book 8 will remake John Carprenters Halloween.

You can't 'remake' Scream, Nightmare On Elm Street and Halloween as books without the copyright owners' permission. You can be inspired by them, but not 'remake' them. It's illegal. And don't call a maniacal teen who murdered her classmates 'Carrie'. Stephen King has already done that.

Also, you haven't 'reedited your book series'. You're just planning out your plots. 'Editing' is not the same as 'planning'. Editing is something completely different. Editing is when you go through a draft of your full manuscript and make changes to your text, not when you just start changing plot details at the planning stages.

Finally... this is all just an incoherent mess. It makes very little sense, and half the books have almost no plot at all.

1. Big Day

“MS. KINGSTON?”
“Hmm?” I looked up from my sketchpad towards the source of the impatient voice. I almost forgot where I was. Oh right. School. The teacher was tapping the ruler onto the palm of his hand impatiently. Then I realized that the whole class was staring.
“Could you . . . repeat the question?” I asked carefully.
“See me after class,” he said in an annoyed tone. He moved on to his next victim. “Ms. Heeley?”
Ms. Heeley, aka, Jenifer Heeley, was resting her head on the desk, using her emaciated arms as a cushion.
“Ms. Heeley?” Mr. Gavin asked again, louder this time.
“Huh?” Jenifer’s head snapped up and she blinked feverishly, “What?” she continued.
“People, people, please! Pay sum attention!” He smiled to himself at his trite math humor. Jenifer set her head back down onto her arms. I silently chuckled to myself.
Jenifer was everybody’s friend. She has this glow that she carried with her, it lured everyone in. She was one of the few people now-a-days that actually listened to your problems without complaint and would even give you a solution. Everyone went to her for advice. She knew what to say, and how to say it. Everyone knew Jenifer. She was unique.
Her features were small, cute. Her chin was slightly pointed, giving her an ominous appearance when she raised her long face. Her eyes were big and she had an unusually beautiful blue color to them and her hair was a naturally curly brunette, which shone in a beautiful sunburned color and had tinted a shade of burgundy red when she was in the sun. I thought she had the most unique combination of eye and hair color.
The final bell rang, and the whole class scurried off in a hurry. Jenifer and I were the only students still in the room. She was still in her seat, head cradled in her arms. Sleeping, no doubt.
“Jennie, wake up, Hun.” I shook her shoulder slightly. She jolted upright, incoherent. Lazily and without mind, she got all of her stuff together and we walked out of the class room together.
“Where do you think you’re going?” Mr. Gavin asked me.
“Nowhere anytime soon I suppose,” I muttered in annoyance.
“I’ll see you later Brooke,” Jenifer mumbled as she left the classroom. At that moment I was as jealous as ever that she got to leave this wretched place.
He started off shaking his head. “Brooke, Brooke, Brooke,” he sighed, “What are we going to do with you staring off into space all the time? You know, when I was in high school way back when and dinosaurs roamed the earth, I was just like you…”
Everything after that was just blah blah blah. Listening to Charlie Brown’s teacher would’ve been more interesting. I looked out the window, at how the fresh green leaves were starting to turn a gleaming burnt orange. I looked around the room, looking at all the posters Mr. Gavin had with all the theorems and postulates that his unwilling students were suppose to memorize. I looked at all the desks that had messages written and meaningless words that other people scratched onto the wood in boredom.
“Alright?” Mr. Gavin inquired.
“Of course. Sorry Mr. Gavin.” I sped walked out of the class room before he could add on to what he was saying.
Ryan was leaning against the lockers with his hands in his pockets and his leg bent back at an awkward angle, waiting. His eyes were blank, staring out at something that wasn’t there. Daydreaming I bet. There was a slight crease in his forehead, lined with worry. Knowing him, I guessed that he was worried about his parents being upset with him when he got home.
Ryan was one of my best friends. His semi-curly brown hair covered his forehead and part of his hazel green eyes. He had a diamond sort of shaped face; his square jaw leaned in to a point. He just got braces about two months ago – which I personally think was unnecessary; his teeth were almost perfectly straight, except for his twelve-year-old molars that grew in a slightest bit crooked. He had a sense of humor and was always goofing off. He was the funniest guy you could know. He could always change your mood.
“So lemme guess, ‘detention for life’?” Ryan said, poorly imitating Mr. Gavin’s voice.
“Nah. Just a thirty minute lecture, worse than a detention if you ask me. Sorry I made you wait. You should have just gone without me,” I apologized.
He raised one light brown eyebrow at me. “You and I both know what my parents would do if I did that.” He bit his lip. “Um . . . can we go home now? My parents are going to get really ticked off if I’m any later.”
So I was right. I laughed and nudged him with my backpack. Ryan and I had to go home together every day. His parents are very ‘paranoid’ in a sense. They couldn’t pick him up since they were both working parents, so the only option was to walk home. But his parents would have a panic attack if he walked home alone. So I graciously offered – and by graciously offered I mean was forced by my parents – to walk him home.
When we got to Ryan’s house, I noticed somet
yeah i know that this is REALLY REALLY long for a yahoo answers question, but this is the first chapter of my book. the names aren't set in stone and i'm open to any criticism! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH TO WHOEVER TOOK THE TIME TO READ THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its very well written. i cant tell yet what its going to be about so i cant really comment. the characters seem likeable enough and realistic.
the character descriptions are very detailed which is good but you might notice authors spread this out throughout their books, for example, the protagonist might point out Ryan's braces mid conversation halfway through the book.
good writing anyway :)

The new girl

Chapter One: It was a warm, sunny, thursday afternoon, and i was trying to savor my last three days here in Los Angeles, before me and my mom move to the small, rundown, crappy town, of Saint Hill, nebraska.

It all started when my mom discovered her dream of becoming a famous bookwriter. Her dream would ruin my life, because I only got through my sophmore year of high school before she was finally done writing her book. And the worst part of it all: It was actually good. and she knew it, so she called like a hundred billion different companies trying to get her book published, which led her to Milton book CO. right smack in the middle, of Saint Hill, nebraska. And that's the story of why we decided to move.


It was my last day of school, here at Campton high, and me and my two best friends, leah and jordan, were planning on ditching 2nd period, because, first of all, we had a big math test, and none of us remembered to study, and second of all, because, I only had two days left, and this might be the last time all three of us are together.

It was now saturday, my last day, and I spent nearly the whole day packing my bags. In my new school, we'd have to wear uniforms, and just thinking about wearing the ugly, red and white skirt, and the dreadful button up with the little red logo on the righthand chest pocket, pretty much ruined my already shitty mood. But i'd just have to deal with it because I really doubt my mom would change her mind now. Actually, im positive, she's been so hyped up the past week. She kept talking about how much money we were going to have with her new job. But honestly, were not even poor now. we live in a high rise apartment building, that was built only like two years ago, and only like really rich people live there. Plus we have a red convertable. Fact is: we really don't need anymore money, the only thing were gaining by moving is, well, nothing. But like i said before, theres no chance of her changing her mind, so theres no point of complaining.

and by the way, this is my new accout, my name used to be brooke A. just thought id let you know so you didnt think i stole this story.
dear Deanna M. i clearly said that it was MY characters last day of school at campton high. not everyones.

its a really good beginning. i would refrain from using the word "like" superficially and i would change the part where it was the last day of school and they were having a big math test. pick one or the other because otherwise it doesnt make sense. why would they be having a math test on the last day of school? and if it was a final, why would they skip a final? i would just change that little thing because it sounds inconsistent. nothing turns a reader off like an inconsistency.

other than that it was a really good beginning. your character is a brat, which is good, because then you can reform her and show character development!
