writers_loftOkay, so I'm just so confused right now. And I want your guyses advice on what to do. My book involves vampires and yes they are teenagers at a school. Sounds like Twilight doesn't it. Well I don't want it to sound like Twilight. I want it to be my own (with secret agents and strong, independant women), and I have had some people suggest that I change them to adults, so that they're older and more mature.
And I don't know which to choose. I've been thinking about it and I just can't decide, so I'm holding a poll. If you pick yes or no please tell me why in the comment box. Thank you.

Sure, you get the literate 14-16 year old on a brief occasion, but large market of people in that age bracket would rather read about someone they can better relate to- a student.
Same with adult market. If you're aiming at them, they likely don't want to have to deal with highschool drama.
