Basically its about this girl who was born for one reason, to fulfill a dark and evil prophecy. But the girl doesn't want to hurt anyone and doesn't want to be the prophecy. So its like evil against self. She meets people who kind of help her. But didn't know who she really was wen they met. There's betrayal and secrets. And lost hope. With a good twist in the end.

I feel like I was selling you my story...anyway, its basic and written weird, but wat you think? Suggestions and thoughts? Also a few people told me they didn't like prophecy stories and thought they were overrated. Wat do you think? If you agree do you think the story could still be good if I used a different name then prophecy. Like she's threatened or somethin. Or is there just no hope for the idea at all? Please be 100% honest even if that means tellin me my idea sucks. But please actually answer my question! No saying your grammar sucks and that's it. If u wanna tell me that then u can but you also have to answer my questions. And just so u know, I know I made mistakes, I'm just too lazy to go back and correct them. Off topic.....ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOVE!!!
Thx.

I think the biggest factor in writing is how well the author writes. Honestly, my first impression was that the idea had been done before, like the person before me said, but what idea hasn't been written about with as many books as there are? I think if it's written well and captures the reader's interest, then you could write about just about anything.

Personally, I like the idea of self-fulfilling prophecies, but that's just me.

Hrm... It doesn't sound like an interesting read to be honest. It's been done before... Hell there's even a teen titans episode like that.

I think it would be more interesting going into that sort of situation alone - where there's no one you can trust. I think it's too convenient to have people helping out all the time. The character could have the people helping her kept in the dark about what's really going on.

Plus if she does't want to fulfill or be a prophesy, wouldn't she just kill herself? Also, how is it possible for her to have an organisation of allies when she is to fulfill the prophesy? Wouldn't they just kill her too?
