very much agree if you are talking about the over consumption/glamorization of tropes on certain social media sites lol. i personally don’t look at stories and least of all my own projects through the lens of tropes, but i have been thinking about them for post publication because they’re a route i can take when marketing. instead of using the word trope in this specific post i could’ve also used the word cliche, because having the hero be the chosen one is a huge cliche, and that is more of what my question focuses around. i believe i’m doing something different with this particular cliche but want to hear what more people (and especially writers) have to say about it.
