An interesting twist

I was writing my novel the other day and I realized that the novel should include a twist, since at the current moment it was pretty boring. I thought of killing off every one but two people for the sole purpose of drama, but I then thought that it might not be very fun to read, or there would be too much drama. I still haven't found the solution to my twist, mostly because of my thoughts after I thought of killing everybody. I figured that even if I only thought of killing everybody, that it might make me a possible genocidal maniac.

Now, I had a pretty good reason to think so. While I was watching Fox News (of which I'm a big fan), there was a discussion on the O'Reilly Factor about a pedophile who thought he was online chatting with two thirteen year old girls, and a fifteen year old girl. Now, there were two women who were acting as O'Reilly's panel. He informed the viewers of his show that this pedophile was arrested for only his thoughts about having, which he clearly stated as he talked to the three supposed teenage girls (all of whom were male cops) what his "actions" would be once they met at the local park. O'Reilly then asked if the pedophile deserved to be put away for only the attempt of having sexual contact with these girls. The girls said yes, but one of them said that he hadn't legally committed any crime. However, they both agreed that even though he did not carry out his actions he still deserved to be locked up.

Now, this got me thinking about some things. Will this mean that if I thought about killing everybody in a book, would I be arrested? And so I decided not to put that into the novel. However, I am still trying to think up a twist that would fit nicely in with my plot. I am failing, and my task is beating me. I even thought about dropping the twist altogether. Then, I thought that maybe if I took the twist out it would make the novel boring. That's the last thing I want. If I maybe killed one of the characters in the book, that is indicated at dying soon anyway, maybe I'd get away with it. Yes, that is what I'll do. This way I'll save my novel from becoming boring, and won't be arrested for it. Finally, after a long week of debates, I have found a solution to my problem.

I must now thank you for your help. You have allowed me to brainstorm, where anybody else just walks away. Though, did you have much of a choice? And how should I know you actually stayed to read it? It's not like you signed in blood a contract saying "I will read Declan's rants without walking away". You could just walk away, and I'd never know. And then I'd have nobody listen to what I had just said. Oh. Great. Now my head is filled with a ba-jillion other questions that I have no way of answering. It's not like I can write them into another post, because you could easily just walk away from that one too. This is going to be a problem. I have one question that needs to be answered when I begin the post, and now I have 30 at the end of it.

Nevertheless, I must thank you for your time at least. Oh wait... you didn't have to spend any time reading this. Nevermind. I thank you all anyway, how about that? There doesn't have to be a reason to thank people. I thank my dog for giving me the inspiration to start my novel, which is completely a lie, because my dog is too lazy to even eat her dinner. Anyway, I will now bid you all adieu, and hope you all have a great day.
