It's not a good idea to keep bringing up George Lucas because he's not a very good writer.

Well, I've actually written some stuff but its nothing like the story-style fiction I want to get into
No characters in the first two. And this is a work of fiction, which sounds more like a post on Sankaku rather than something publishable:

He has the occasional flash of inspiration, but he's really just ok. The reason he became so rich is because he was more open to suggestions early in his career; now that we have his undiluted vision that is the Star Wars prequels, you see why writing is typically a collaborative process. He had just as many bad ideas planned for the original films, only he wasn't allowed to use them.

he's also wealthy because of ILM which revitalized the special effects industry for movies and television.
Star Wars alone inspired lots of geeks, nerds and wannabes to get into science,tech, literature and acting.
For a tiem everyone was using ILM, until competition got better at catching up. But for a while he was raking in the monay.
He also marketed the merchansing of Star Wars. Because he retained most of the rights for toys and commercial potential.
So Envoy, go ahead and write - but don't just whip something out and post it. Rewrite what needs to be fixed, if you think you need to fix it. Accept input from peers and those who can help. But don't forget to be assertive so they don't try to turn your creation into something that isn't yours anymore.

Thanks guysWell, I've always wanted to write a story in a fictional setting which is actually based on my own observations/life. But my past attempts have been failures because my characters come out "stiff" and unnatural. I know a good character is one that people can relate to (like Vegio said), but due to my inborn personality, I have no idea how "normal" people think; which is my main flaw in writing. This is one reason why I started this thread.
The other reason is:
For a story I have in the works, I realized that I had unintentionally done something quite classical and modeled a great number of the characters after extreme extrapolations based my own personality flaws and things about myself that just plain creep me out sometimes.
You can base characters off the less screwed up things about your personality to find more "normal" characters. They don't have to turn out exactly like you, because you don't have to give them all the elements of your personality. Then you just have to figure out what a character would do if he knew some of the things you knew, instead of trying to make it all up from nothing.
I'm very tired at the moment, so I am using short words and my sentence structure is probably very poor. I will not be surprised if this makes no sense when I wake up and reread it in a few hours, but I hope it is useful in some way.

I've been working on a story for my computer science final project next semester (Gotta plan ahead hehe). It's actually a prequel to a bigger story that I worked on for a couple of months, but later scrapped it due to loss of interest.
It lets the player assume the role of an average high school senior who has just transferred to a new school. His Mother died prior to the story, which has caused his father to be more of the 'hopeless romantic' type (more for comedic value). Because of his mixed descent, the school populace views him as a delinquent, and his poor grades don't help much in that respect.
This loneliness causes him to become more of an introvert, and he now prefers taking the longer path home as it allows him time to think. During one of these long walks, he comes across a girl just sitting in front of a bed of flowers, tending to them (She's the heroine). Their first encounter doesn't last long. A week or two passes, and he manages to talk to her each day, once (even on weekends!) at the same exact spot. It doesn't bother him that the girl is at the same exact spot each day as he is happy enough to have a friend.
Of course, for added plot value, overtime he becomes acquainted with one of his classmates (a male, haven't decided on a name yet, no this isn't a yaoi) and they quickly become friends. He later finds out, while walking home with his new buddy, that the girl he talks to everyday is his buddy's younger sister. This helps with the overall relationship, up to the point where the protagonist gets invited for dinner several times. During these visits, he notices that the girl needs help getting around, and starts suspecting that she may be ill.
Time passes, and the protagonist learns more about his buddy and his sister's situation. The girl is suffering from muscle dystrophy, and is slowly losing control of her body, making her more and more reliant on others just to get around. Their family is struggling with medical bills, as they have also sold their car in order to afford medication. As well, their parents work constantly in order to make ends meet, which is why the protagonist never met them; even when he was invited for dinner. This is also the reason behind his buddy's performance in school; in order to help his family out, he's giving it his all in school so that he may get a good job in the future to support himself and his family.
(At this point, the player can decide whether or not he should help. It's obvious which choice will lead to the 'good end')
Initially, the protagonist helps out by going over after school and just aiding with simple chores around the house. His relationship with the girl improves so much to the point where her brother even trusts him enough to allow him to spend the night with her (not an eroge, though), as he is preoccupied with some business. It's here that the protagonist confesses to the girl. For the sake of a cheap cliffhanger, I won't say how she responds :D. She also tells him some good news: Her Mom and Dad managed to find time off their work, and will be taking her to the Hospital for her monthly check up in a few days. Although it doesn't seem like much, it's been a while since her family has gone anywhere 'together'. She also happily tells the protagonist that he can come over for dinner, so that her parents can finally meet him.
Sadly, it doesn't go as planned. They are caught in a transit accident while on the way to the hospital (the protagonist finds out through the news). Only his buddy survives.
These events lead up to the main story, which I dropped. It basically switches perspective to his buddy, and how he slowly overcomes the guilt of his family's death with the help of his friends, loose ends from the prequel are tied up, and a new cast of characters are introduced. no it won't be an eroge

yo dude , you want my imho? , the story is packed with countless cliches aside from the point i swear i have already read a manga/manhwa with a plot like that , i just dont remember most part of the plot and name , also you said that if for your computer science final project so i assume you will make then game but in just 6 months? either for a 2d/3d game that is really difficult , man unless you use someone who have participated in the Ludum Dare i doubt you can make a game that fast

I'm aware its full of cliches, I put them in on purpose :D
It was largely influenced by a ton of stuff, I don't think I can recall all of them if I tried. The thing with my teacher is is that he doesn't care if the game isn't finished. He really just cares if we use techniques taught in the course. Last year I made something similar using turing, the end result wasn't satisfying but it was all done in 2-3 months. I'll probably spend half the semester fleshing the story out more and the rest applying what I learned and making a more polished game

Turing? da fuck? at least they teach you some java? couldnt the teachers find a more unknow language like , ehm.... *insert here a totally unknow language that you would maybe never ever use in the game development world or actually anywhere, here* well if you know java , i recommend you go for jmonkey3d if you want 3d , if you want 2d you can go for love2d and if you want 2d visual novel kind go for renpy

Java makes turing look so trival, and I've tried renpy a few times, pretty neat stuff (Wasted too much time with imagemap/buttons)
