Woohoo!!!!!!!!!! My first

Woohoo!!!!!!!!!! My first post!!! I've been warned by Ann that it goes to the back, so I'm going to do a lot of "topping", as Ann calls it. Anyway, I'm here to post a book idea and see if anyone likes it. It focuses on the lives of four characters, who are the only people on the train platform at midnight. A completely silent train with wings pulls up, and the characters are told by the conductor that they must fix their pasts. All of the people have troubled lives, and all of their troubles started with the sighting of a black circle in the sky that only they could see. They are given a second chance to relive their worst moments and try to fix whatever went wrong, and as they grow closer to the memory of the circle in the sky, they realize that they will have to confront whatever it means. The characters are: a criminal on the run, a woman getting out of a troubled situation, a teen boy running away from an abusive father, and a young woman giving up her promising career as a teacher to be with her "first love." I know it sounds weird, but I pride myself on writing strange stories.

   So. Suggestions? Critique? Anything?

That sounds like a really serious drama... Can you post a little bit of it? A prologue or something?

It could be really good if yoou do it good, but it all depends on how you write it.
