Plot ideas

Here is what I'm thinking...

This is a twist on Life on Mars (tv show), Lost (tv show), Quantum leap (tv show), Back to the Future (movie), and The Matrix (movie).

Time travel. Body snatching. Era changes. Interaction between jumps, development with or without resolution. The reactions between characters changes future events.

I would have to have a linear story line before creating the story the way it would be intended to be read.

Would I follow the timeline of a character? Like in 12 monkeys with Bruce Willis? His character was jumping through time, but his friends were crossing paths at different points in their journey. One friend would be dead, and then the next jump the same character would be alive again.

I like this idea. It keeps the reader guessing. And it makes for a read where you don't want to miss a single detail.

I love super heroes as well. So giving some characters abilities might be a cool idea as well.

I think this is going somewhere.
