What do you think of the basics of my book?

a.) THE PLOT

A small town, hidden in a lusciously-wooded valley, has secrets to hide. But the town is burnt one night, the outcome a known event where everyone burns to death along with the secrets they had worked so hard to protect. But a princess of sorts Lilac, survives. Having known the secrets, she uses the flourishing land to keep herself alive for a few days and then plans to find a way to bring herself to death. But when travelers come by on majestic horses, she's drawn to one in particular--a boy, or near man. They find Lilac and she's taken back to the kingdom where the men come from. But an old woman who lives in the kingdom was the midwife for Lilac and ran from the town where she was born long ago to escape the secrets--and she thought she had! She exposes the secret Lilac had kept so hard...That the town where she comes from is a town of the long-ago thought to have died of: the Gifted. The people of Lilac's town had been bred long ago to have powers or Gifts. And Lilac's was the one they needed to keep hidden most of all. Lilac is thrown out like trash from the Kingdom but the man helps her.

I can't really tell you the ending but the whole book will be the first of a trilogy.

b.) THE NAMES

1. Do you like Lilac for her name? I thought it sounded mysterious and beautiful. but feel free to make other suggestions.

2. What should the man's name be? This story is set in a made up land, much like the Rennasance period in Europe.

3. What should the name of (a) Lilac's town be and (b) the kingdom be?

c.) THE GIFTS

Okay, so could you list some powers of gifts people could have, such as invisibility, speed, night vision, singing powers like the sailors thought mermaids had, etc...And try to find a power that is special enough for Lilac. Alright! :)

THANKS A TON!
