Hi, I am writing a fantasy novel about witches and vampires. It is a fairly dark book, not with happy little elves running around J
Plot: The book is about a girl named Lily who has just escaped from a school that trains witches from birth to be cold-blooded killers. She meets a young man and begins to fall in love with him but then realizes that he is a vampire and that she has been trained to kill him her whole life. The young man sees her eyes (they are violet, the sign of a witch) and begins to attack her. Lily doesn’t fight back because she feels that she deserves it and she lets him bite her (she becomes sort of a half-vampire, she is only a vampire at night and she bites herself rather than hurt anymore innocent people) So then a Master at the school that she just escaped from tries to kill the vampire and Lily throws herself in front of him and gets injured really badly. She collapses and William (the vampire) pulls her into her arms and kisses her because she just saved his life. When she wakes up he is gone and she is entirely alone and injured in the forest. While traveling she is attacked by the witches and saved by a human girl names Holly who takes Lily back to her cottage and introduces her to her grandfather, Aldrin, who is a with who escaped just like Lily had many years before. Aldrin trains Lily and takes Lily in almost as a second granddaughter. One day while in the market Lily is spotted by a group of vampires who trick her into putting bracelets on her wrists that prevent her from doing any magic. They then take her to a horrible jail where she remains for several years. William eventually comes back (I’m not saying how, haha) and breaks Lily out of jail. Lily knows that he has a girlfriend as she sees him kissing her and their relationship is cold and distant, filled with many icy silences and snappy remarks. William takes her to a secret place where a group of vampires are gathering to begin discussing forming an army to overthrow the witches. The vampires hate Lily (for obvious reasons) but do begin to trust her as she trains them to kill witches most efficiently. The war begins and…That’s all I’m going to say. Sorry for the confusing summary
Twilight: This book has nothing to do with Twilight. Just because it involves a vampire and forbidden love doesn’t automatically make it a Twilight knock off. Besides, I started writing this long before I’d read Twilight. (RANDOM FACT: Lily’s original name was Bella after Bellatrix Lestrange from Harry Potter who I used a the foundation of Lily’s character. I wrote the first chapter as her being Bella and then outlined the next three chapters also as her being Bella and then forgot about the book. By the time I picked it up again I had read Twilight and knew that I could no longer call her Bella. Phooey, I liked that nam) By the way, William is not the perfect Edward, he has his flaws, and Lily and Bella could hardly be more opposite. So yes, PLEASE do not even mention Twilight.
My Title- The title that I have come up with is Ink and Ivroy: Lullaby of the Night. Ink and Ivroy is reffering to piano keys, it also represents the difference between witches and vampire, Lily and Sarah (Will’s gf), good and evil, etc. Lullaby of the Night has to do with the beauty of things that are considered dark (this doesn’t make sense unless you know the whole story. I think that Ink and Ivory suits the book better but I really like the title Lullaby of the Night, so I put them together. I had the idea that if I wrote a sequel then it could be Ink and Ivory: Song of blahblahblah
So what do you think? Does my title do the book justice? Would you read it? I’ll include a scene from the book so that you can get an idea of my writing style.

Love the title. It’s clever how you made them fit together and make sense. But if you are going to end up going with one or the other then I would definitely choose Ink and Ivory.
I would like to add that I have read your stuff many times and the writing really is excellent. You are very mature and not like a wanna-be writer. You can actually write and you do it EXTREMELY well. The novel sounds VERY fantastic and as far as i can tell it is also very original. You write eloquently and I love the words that you use. For you to have written like this at only 12 is simply amazing. I would definitely buy it and read it.
Either “Love at first bite” or “Little Bites”
Awesome story by the way!
Oh, what beautiful names…
Now, as for the book you are writing: I’m 14,337 words into mind. Perhaps we could discuss ideas?
Please e-mail me.

Best of luck with your book.
I’d actually love to read it. I started writing a vampire book when I was eight, recently discovered it. I was so nonchalant five years ago. XD
I want to here the whole story, e-mail me at
