Help with a mystery story?!!?

Who is the author?

Your first problem is approach. You've already limited your story in quite a crippling manner by genrizing it before you ever type a word. This is the problem of trying to sell your book while you write it -- it'll never work.

Advice: stop. Stop trying to write a mystery story, stop trying to find the perfect ending, stop trying to get a plot line from answers goers (despite their well intentions :)).

Instead, write. What is first required to do that is inspiration. If you are never inspired then you are likely not a writer, or at least a very good one.

If you are in an inspirational rut, you may not be looking at the world closely enough. Focus on the simple, the minute, bits of conversation in public restaurants, the way a flower has been growing in between a crack in the concrete, somehow, despite being stepped on more than once, facial expressions, animals, the afternoon traffic, beads of condensation on a glass of water.

Jesus, inspiration never ends. Every time someone opens their mouth I get inspired to write. It will happen to you the more you take an interest in the mechanics of life.

Find a character, someone with something to prove and nothing to prove it with...yet.

Find a story, a story about anything. You dream don't you? Do you dream of nothing, and then say "I can't think of anything to dream about?"

Your dreams come subconsciously, like your stories should: uninhibited. Let go, and you will open a flood gate.

Good luck, truly.

Do one with a new crime investigator(set it in 18th or 19th century) Well murderers eesm to be happening and from the new crime investigators past the criminal seems to be his uncle. But at the end it turns out that the true murderer is himself, using flash bakcs and what not. Sorry if it wasn't very detailed you could add you own stuff. Hope I helped!good luck !

For a secret tale, except it particularly is meant for toddlers, i might dodge attempting to discover suitable character-matching names. human beings are not named that way besides...and it is going to be slightly a humid squib in the experience that your villain is at contemporary spottable simply by fact he's the single with the "evil" call. the telephone itemizing is powerful. 4 (or 8) random surnames, choose for a manner old they're, and then something from the precise fifty toddler names from the year they have been born.

a high lord bites the dust but who did it? the maid is charged but she swears she didn't do it. Will the police find the killer?

Turns out the killer was the neighbor. Why becuz the lord would not trim his hedges.

i read this really awesome one....it went into how the suspect stalks his 'prey' and stuff like that and in the end it was a spider catching a fly....very clever

This will help a lot.

A mystery novel can be about anything.

Good luck!!!
