Get Outa My Head
I hope someone will be kind enough to win a really, really big lottery and share so I can stop worrying about earning a living and just spend time writing.
Yesterday morning, 5 a.m.ish the first two lines of the story appeared in my mind as I was ignoring the large dog who wanted to go out: "I want him out of my head" and "I want him outa my head." Set in a future America, 25-30-35 years from now, the narrator is a wealthy, gay doctor who is an expert in NIPS (non-integrated personalities syndrome), and the founder of GRIPS (Global Re-Integrated Personalities Society).
His really, really hot new patient has such an unusual type of NIPS that doc is confident he's going to win the GRIPS Physician of the Year award once he re-integrates the guy's two personalities. One is just an ordinary guy named Richard. The other insists his name is Rikar, and that he's some sort of nobility (prince, maybe?) in a world where magic exists. And of course he's wondering WTF is going on with his new body and weird surroundings.
Things get really, really, REALLY weird when Rikar starts showing up in his own body, and Dick and Rik just alternate.
Then there's the gypsy curse.
And a perhaps interesting way of having a menage a trois when you only have two bodies.
And the ending is sort of written, but definitely outlined.
"Get Outa My Head" is just a working title, but it's also a plea to Whoever there be to hold off, just a little while, with the new ideas, at least until I get some of the current stuff done.
