Are you afraid that what you're writing has all been done before? Is it too "cliche"? Is it an overused trope? Should you avoid writing tropes, or is there a right way to do it? In this episode, Abbie and I are delving into all things tropes, and answering the question that many writers have been asking themselves as they grapple with their novels: "is my book too cliche?" Grab a notebook and lets go!
