Do You Think I Can Go Anywhere With This Storyline [Steampunk Setting]?
Question by c?n??t: Do you think I can go anywhere with this storyline [steampunk setting]?
Radley Fitzgerald is a war veteran and is currently in rehab for a severe cocaine addiction. He’s hired a live-in nurse, a young man named Hamlin Kirkpatrick. When Hamlin first moves in, bringing his daughter Ellie, Radley is a cold and bitter man.
A few months pass and Radley is still cold, but he finds he’s falling in love with Hamlin. He attempts to warm up to Ellie in hopes of bonding more with Hamlin, but she’s afraid of him because of what his servants say. When Hamlin is called away to war, Radley is put in charge of Ellie. The two bond, and soon the former cocaine addict is like a second father to the little girl.
At one point, Ellie is kidnapped (due to her father’s enemies in war) and despite being handicapped, Radley does what he can to get her back. He returns to war as a spy, having once been a famous spy for the army, and sneaks over enemy lines to get Ellie back. He is found by the enemies and taken prisoner. They drug him and beat him, hoping to get information out.
Radley finds Ellie while there, and he helps her to escape. Once she is freed, he is sentenced to death, but he is saved when the troops of the other side come. Hamlin finds him half-dead, but takes him home and nurses him back to health.
The former addict is happier now that he has Ellie and Hamlin back, and that’s the end.
…or is it?

I don’t know, can you? Stories are written through sitting down every day for many months and writing. Only you know if you can discipline yourself to do that or not.
If you’re asking “does this plot work?” One problem: I’m not sure I’d ever leave my daughter with a strange man with a coke addiction. (well, not if a prostitute on heroin was available as an alternative 8-p) But you might be able to convince me they’d do this because of circumstances with a whole lot of work.
I don’t see how it’s steampunk yet. It sounds like a M/M romance.
If it appeals to you, write it.
