Some "typical" characteristics of YA

Feb 11, 2008 11:03

Thank you, eldheni for sending me this Pubrants entry that lists the 25 Most Common Things You See In YA Literature.

Gotta admit, I'm guilty of 3:

#17 - Parents who are professional writers or book illustrators (Shawna's mom is a photographer/illustrator)

#12 - A dead mother (if she dies IN the story, does it still count?)

#7 - Fingernail biting (Martha)

OK, guys, be honest: how many did YOU hit? And will any of this make you think twice about your current wips or future projects?
