I did a search of the site and didn't see an active thread for this except in women's romance, and that doesn't pique my interest. So, I figure with the blessing of the moderators, I would pose this question to all of my fellow YA writers. I know there's a constant frenzy among some writers to determine the next big thing, the trend that will come along and sweep up their work at just the right moment. Personally, I can't write to the market, because by the time I finish a book, it would be just too late. Also, I can't force a storyline. So, the novel I just finished is about vampires/werewolves. It has a religious sort of twist, which is what I hope will be it's saving grace. My other WIP is somewhere between a science fiction piece and a dystopian. Both of those have been big trends as of the past five/ten years, but are considered to be dead in the water. So, who's with me? What are you writing?
