Also since I can't seem to come up with a full blog to write for writing advice I will put this here since alot of the reviews have mentioned it....

HOW TO NOT WRITE A LOVE TRIANGLE: 

1. Unless your story is called Total Drama Soulmates. The lovetriangle should not be the main focus of the story. We have already seen Total Drama Action.... World Tour.... All Stars.... So I really could not be bothered to read about your love triangle if that is the case. Have the love triangle be a plot starter- or plot ender. But do not have it be the end-all plot.

2. The ~Middle~ character is not a fish. They do not FLIP FLOP. People do not FLIP FLIP. WE ARE NOT FISH. If I read that your character has changed who they liked twice in one chapter- or goes back in forth every chapter. I will draw an ugly fish picture of your character. DO NOT MAKE THEM A FISH. Have the reason for the change in love interest be meaningful.

3. If I know who will win the ~middle~ do not write the triangle. Just scrap your idea. Because I don't care. Love triangles work because they make people root for ONE character and HATE another (usually. for example I love edward but want to stab the dog) Sometimes you can root for both, but that's much less fun. By having one side the ~clear~ winner, you ruin the entire point of a love triangle except trying to be different. And by doing this, your story will be different, because it sucks.

4. The ~middle~ characer does not have some MAGIC ABILITY to turn people into someone else. Unless they're actually a witch and then just skip this. BUT if they aren't. When THEY pick who they want to be with. The other character should NOT become some evil person who is hell-bent on destorying the universe. Yes, heart breaks suck, but there are plenty of fish (the double pun please dont kill me <3) in the Tide.

5. IF YOU ELIMINATE THE OTHER CHARACTER AND THAT IS WHY THE MIDDLE PERSON PICKS THE PERSON THEY LIKE YOU JUST WROTE A HO.

That is all <3 I love you, and good luck.
