Literature tells us of the epic battle raged between humans and werewolves. We know of their struggle between good and evil, between love and hate- what makes them so interesting is the link that werewolves have to being a regular human being at day and an animal at nights.
But are werewolves real? Or is it a science fiction based struggle that we have seen through so many other characters? A werewolf links between human and animal. A vampire links between a human and blood sucking monster. Bigfoot is closely linked with human and animal. So are they just science fiction? And what makes us enjoy their company in the imaginative world of T.V., movies, series, comics, books and novels?
Artists, authors, theorists all try to create a new beginning for these beloved creatures, to create a link to real human feelings, and an internal struggle which we seek to resolve. As today's technology increases, any chances of a creature of this nature is dimming in its likelihood of being discovered or having existed. But that doesn't stop us from trying! There will be a new twist to every story, to try and create something different from what we have seen before.
So, be it science fiction or reality, our interest will never die and only grows as time goes by. But one has to wonder if the epic tales between good and evil, human and animal, will ever be told in such a way as they were in the very beginning, when our interest was at its peek.

The Breaking Point In Horror Books
All horror books have a breaking point. The point where everything falls apart in a horror book. Whether it is the villain being caught, or the victims all being taken down there will be a breaking point. I like it when the good guys win, so I usually like the villain to be caught. Although there are many good books where the villain wins and the victims in the story are defeated. I can not say which is my favorite breaking point in horror books. It usually depends on the story to me. Sometimes I will be disappointed if the breaking point is with the victims in the book, but I can not deny that I had just read a good horror book. I also like a breaking point where the villain is never found. It leaves a suspense and it is the breaking point where neither the victim or the villain get the closure they want.

Fantasy Books Make the Best Movies- Revisited
I love fantasy movies! They have a lot of excitement and interesting things presented in their films. They make in very enjoyable for someone who really likes a good story with some imagination. There are some very good movies out there that are based off of fantasy books. I love these movies because they seem original. I think fantasy books make the best movies. Some fantasy movies based on books are How to Train Your Dragon based on the book by Cressida Cowell, Hugo based on the book The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick, and Inkheart based on the book by Cornelia Funke. I really like these movies. I love it when I can read the books and watch the movies based on them. They are fun to see.

The Power To Write- Get Inspired
Enjoying the writing process is the way to go! If you have trouble writing make sure you take some time to "sit" on the problem. And when you do, the first step is to see the solution within the problem. Tell yourself that there is no problem. Because the problem is your solution.
It is absolutely good when there is a problem in the story. If the problem wasn't a problem at all then solutions wouldn't matter and polishing your story would have no meaning. Problems stand out to let us know that the story can be improved. Start telling yourself that problems . . . are good things.

Writing Ideas- Activities For Your Book
On a writer's good day he/she can give advice to fellow writers if asked to. Because the writer is up to beat that day, recieving many ideas, the ideas coming to him can quickly come to life in words. If you can do this, or have helped someone in this way, it's no wonder the day you can't write becomes "a dying day". Frustrated and eager minds quickly label failures in this way. So, I'll bet you want someone like you on those days. But why not have you.
On those good days take some time after you write or on breaks to give a quick note on what motivated, inspired, or helped you write. Then on the bad days, open up this note and read for yourself some helpful tips on what can get you going. After all, who is better to help you than yourself. You know what to warn yourself of and how to get that mind of yours going. The pure feeling of opening the note can give you the inspiration you need, as you remember how good it felt to write on that good day of yours.
