    It's already been done.
    I'm being facetious of course.
    Asking someone to write a story is like asking someone to eat broken glass.

    what do you mean its already been done?

    as in a story with a crow attacking a human?

    It can't be that someones written a story that's too similar to mine. I can't imagine lots of stories with birds attacking humans but it can't be too much like mine.

    I don't think your analogy was very nice or accurate. If someone is stuck for ideas they can use this story idea while giving me a lot of help and being kind.

    I'd say its more like buying the ingredients for a cake but not being able to make it. So you ask your neighbour to make it and the two of you can share. Except in this case, since its an open forum, everyone can have a slice for free, and there is an inifinite amount of cake.

    I don't see how broken glass can relate to a short story at all

    Did you ever read the short story The Birds? I don't think anyone will write your story for you.

    response ot request

    Jersea is 100 percent right. Good cakes are made by single bakers using their own recipies. Not by commitee. Perhaps you're thinking of song writing. Words by one person, music by the other.
