Chatterbox: Inkwell

help me write a (hopefully publishable) book!

hello, my lovely CBers! would you like a chance to add a piece to a puzzle, so to speak, that will someday be seen by thousands? well, here it is!

I'm currently writing a book that I plan to publish within the next few years, or at least start the publishing process of. it's a very difficult process, and every once in a while, I get pretty stumped on what to name something, or what a character should look like, what shop to place here, what material this building should be made of, how many hours it takes to boat from an island to a continent... the list goes on. so I need your help!

and in return, I have a promise that I hope I can legally uphold: in my acknowledgements, I'll mention you! all of you! I'm sure I wouldn't be able to list everyone by name, but I will encompass all of you by one group name, whatever that ends up being.

a few spare rules/notes:

- please don't be hurt if I say no to your idea on a certain thing! sometimes it just doesn't fit right in what I'm doing. I don't mean to hurt anyone's feelings, I'm just trying to make if feel right in my story.

- I might go for a while without asking for help. I won't really have a schedule for it, so if I go a long time silent, keep watch--I'll be back!

- if there are multiple ideas, I'll choose what fits best, so like I said before, don't be hurt if your idea doesn't get picked.

- try not to suggest something silly or, of course, profane (I know you guys would never but I still have to say it ':0 ). I'm seriously trying to make a book here, and although I'd get a laugh from it, I might actually need help.

without further ado, here's a short summary of the story! I might not cover everything, so if something needs explaining in one of my help requests, I'll explain it. this summary is a bit vague; there was a TON of stuff to cover, so it was difficult. if you guys need more to go on, I can copy down some necessary parts of the story, but the formatting will get messed up.

ANYWAYS, here we go: 

For centuries, the people of Eclares have lived in a delicate peace. But tensions are rising. Clarissia's ruler is growing more greedy with every season, asking more and more of the other countries. The sun seems to be drifting further away. And there are rumors of the Nexus growing restless, the Shade growing more powerful, the Shadows getting braver.

The world is on the brink of collapsing into war.

But in the midst of the frail peace, two souls are thrown into chaos of their own. Lysander's life, in barely a day, changes from peaceful and easy into a continual run, the confusion of his strange ability chasing him. And Thaeel, once believing that she was only a tiny piece in the great architecture that was the world, finds herself in a whirlwind of doubt and fear.

Two destinies.

Three moons.

One planet, split in two.
