What Are Common Mistakes Writers of Vampire Books Make?

Thinking their characters' names have to suit them PERFECTLY. - Being unable to take any criticism. - Acting as if grammar is unessential.

- Thinking anyone but them have the duty to come up with their ideas. - Mary-Sue/Gary-Stu characters. (Often because they don't know that's frowned upon.) - Over/under-description.

- Horrible beginnings, with little or nothing to hook. - Generalization of genres. If you think fantasy's warriors and magicians in medieval times, or if you think romance is girl must decide between two (hawt) guys, then you're sorely mistaken.

- Underconfidence. Some think that they aren't good enough. If you think your story will suck, it WILL.

Edit: One I've made on a few stories--making chapters absurdly short.

I think a lot of them feel that they have to write something that is something that 'everyone (in their target audience) would want to read' (i.e. "everyone likes vampire books, if I write one I'll become sooooo famous!"), or want to write/start writing for money. This obviously isn't all new writers, it's an observation I have made from questions asked here on B&A.

It probably does not apply to many, but I know I used to think "I'm going to make millions from publishing!" when I attempted to write at 7-13 years old.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
