Reincarnation
Born 2004, F, from Indiana, United StatesAfter a near-fatal accident on the 12 of December 2000, Randy wakes up after being dead for exactly 3 minutes. When he recovers, he feels something inside him missing. Strange visions flood his dreams, visions from the perspective of someone different. Someone he feels like he knows, but can't quite place why or how.
Katy is born on the 12 of December 2000. Her whole life is a strange one. She doesn't understand why her accent sounds different from her family's. Her body grows two times as fast as it's supposed to and her mind ages even faster. She sees strange things in her dreams, things that seem familiar, but with answers that are just out of her reach.
Something is pulling the two closer and closer together. A strange force. Two halves of a whole.

12/10/2020What I was imagining for this is that when Randy 'died' his soul was split in half, now shared with baby Katy, who lived in Australia. Randy's soul was trying to get back together with itself, which is why Katy's mind and body grew twice as fast. In their dreams they enter into the others' perspective. They both feel a strange pull towards each other, which is the soul trying to turn the two pieces back into one. If I had actually had the motivation to write this story, I would have written that Kady runs away from home to follow the pull inside her, as does Randy. They meet up at an airport and automatically know who the other is. They live together the rest of their lives, a friendship between the two halves.
They are, quite literally, soulmates.

12/10/2020Hey Hannah,
So what you do (as a Writer) is file that bit away in your brain. Let the story percolate, simmer, or wait for the right time to blossom. The simple admission that you recognize that it could be a good story means that part of you knows it is a good story...it just isn't ripe yet. Don't beat yourself up over it...it will come out of storage some day down the line.
I had a Writer friend who said she had a good idea for a story (she calls ideas that aren't full blown enough to write yet :Notions). She said that she had a "notion" for a book when she was in college. She played with it a bit, but sort of let it slide. Twenty two years later, she wrote that story. She said it took that long for the knowledge to flesh out the story enough to write the whole thing. I think this story is like that for you.
A few years from now, the idea of Soulmates and Reincarnation will pop back into your head- and then we will get the "full story." Until then, keep coming up with these wonderful premises for stories! Merry Christmas, Kevin

12/10/2020Thank Kevin. What I had above was the synopsis for what would have been a full story, but as soon as I started writing it I just kinda lost it XD
And then I felt like I should describe the story below so it makes a little more sense... I definitely wish I had the motivation to finish, it was such a good idea too :(

12/10/2020Hannah, What you wrote as a "reply" was a much fuller story than the one you actually published. It is a good story...just as it is. So the story was written in your head...the only motivation missing was filling in the colors. As for me, I loved your reply and would give it five stars.
Smiles, Kevin
