I posted a reply earlier, but for some reason it didn’t do it. So I’m trying to remember what I wrote. I love this idea because it can go in any direction your wild imagination will allow. Here’s a clean up and suggestions to consider:
“On another boring Friday night five college friends stumble upon a radioactive rock that grants wishes, but for only a brief time. Now they must protect the powers of this unearthly rock and themselves from __________________.”
The antagonist will determine the genre of your story. For instance:
1. A government syndicate like the “Axis Powers” (Germany, Italy, Japan during WWII) will give a point in time reference while providing the urgency of their mission using this historical significance. >> Action/Adventure
2. A war-mongering weapons manufacturer led by a vindictive executive. >> Thriller
3. Their significant others (i.e., boyfriends, girlfriends, spouses) >> Comedy
4. Or the second sentence could read, “But now they must protect the powers of this unearthly rock from each other.” >> Horror?
