1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agohelp with story title (ideas)?
Hello, I've recently thought of a story plot I would like to start writing. However, I like to have a title before I start my writing, but I'm stumped. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Plot summary: (still in work)
On that fateful day, when it seemed nothing could go right for Lace Sowell, she sees a boy that no one else seems to notice on the rooftop of a building. Thinking he's about to jump, she confronts him to change his mind. Instead she is kidnapped and taken to the unknown world of the dead.
Also does this idea sound cliche, stupid, ect?

3 AnswersOther - Society & Culture8 years agoHow can I stop being awkward?
Odd question, I know, but I suffer from being so awkward around everyone. Example: last night I spent the night with my friend, and she invited her boyfriend and another boy over also. This other boy, was so charming and nice, I wanted to talk to him so bad but we barely had a conversation--we mostly laughed at each other's muffled jokes. We played mancala together, and I got so awkward I kept dropped marbles and ugh...We played twister too but I got out immediately because it felt so weird. I couldn't make eye contact with any of them, not even my friend who invited me!

2 AnswersWords & Wordplay8 years agoHow to survive a home robbery?
I live in apartments with my mother, and I am 16. Last night, my neighbor noticed a man trying to get into the other apartments around us, but when he saw her, he took off running. When I was about to walk down the outside stairs (I live on the second floor) I noticed a shadow, so I stayed where I was until I got a message on my phone, so it rang then the shadow was gone.
I'm not really scared, but I would like to know what to do in case my apartment is broken into. I would want to fight the intruder, but me being 4'11 and 102 pounds, I doubt I'd even do damage. I have fast reflexes though.
Also if someone points a gun at you, they're expecting you be frozen in fear, but couldn't you just react really fast and disarm them because they weren't expecting it?

8 AnswersBooks & Authors8 years agoHow can I stop being emotionally weak?
I'm 16, Sophomore in highschool, and a cry baby. I cry at the most stupid/little things. If a friend raises his voice is or angry at me, I cry. If I try to stand up for myself, I cry. If a teacher makes a slight comment, "Pay attention, ect" I CRY. I want to stop all this crying. It's weak.
For example, today this guy kept pestering me about the skirt I was wearing. It has a zipper in the front, and he kept telling me it goes in the back(it really doesn't) so then him and his friend started going through my bag, and I snapped. I started crying and cursing at them then walked off. What's wrong with me....
4 AnswersPsychology8 years agoWhich boy should my character end up with?
Maddix: Leader of sector A-5. He's known Lace (the main girl character) for 3 years. He forced her to join him, forced her to kill and torture people, ect. Definitely obsessed. However, he understands her the most. Treats her with compassion and care. Knows all her secrets/can basically know what she's thinking at most times. In the beginning of the novel, their together, but they slowly fall apart, much to his dislike.
Roman: Ah, the sassy bastard with the attitude problem. Kidnaps Lace from the sector. Yells and often has disagreements with her. He dislikes her, but is still very protective. Tries to understand her, but it often ends with him walking away angry. Has taken a lot of pain and hardship because of her.
