I've decided that I'm going to write a novel. I'm thinking thriller, but I'm open to suggestions.
Give me some ideas; I don't care how insane they sound, I might try doing something "new," even if it doesn't make me a single dime.

look up michael tolkin's movies. I like his ideas

His movies seem pretty original and intriguing, I agree.
This is the start of chapter 1:
Chapter 1
I don‘t want to sound pretentious; I want to create something new, but I have severe doubts whether that‘s even possible at this point. You have these grandiose thoughts of wanting to contribute something great to humanity, to contribute a piece of your supposed, the ever elusive intellect that you want to believe you possess, but you‘re constantly bombarded by doubts, and it makes you hate yourself and feel weak and pathetic and useless.

What if the reason that Communism has failed everytime is because it is a political system made for Cats instead of people? Marx could have been a cat hiding the seams of his Human mask under his beard.
You cant prove me wrong.

That's good, but this is better:
>guy arrives late to get his train
>said train derails and everyone inside dies, so guy stays alive
>have a stream of consciousness of the last 2 minutes of every passenger in the train (80 streams of consciousness, lasting 3-4 pages each, the only context that is given is their appearances, their name, their jobs, religion and where are they in the train)
>last chapter, lasts 30 pages, stream of consciousness of the guy who arrived late, and his opinion on the aftermath (wich will be gruesome, people will be screaming and burning alive)
