  1. So to any writers out there, I need some advice. It just occurred to me that my plot twist I've been planning for a while is very similar to another well known one. I could easily go through with it, or change the gender of one of the characters who has no established gender. What would you do?

      Can you elaborate on that? I'm having a vague idea on what you're telling.

      Basically, I've realized my plot twist I'm planning is a bit cliched. I've set the plot up in a way that one of the main villains is the half brother to the main character. Only now have I realized how many times this has been done before, and I'd rather not reuse the same cliche over and over again. One way I could change it is make the main villain be using a voice modifier, and has actually been his half sister all along, or I could just go with the half brother cliche. Any opinions?

      In my opinion, even though that cliche is overused, if you can make it execute well in your story and it would actually make sense to the plot, I don't see why you should change it. On the other hand if you're really worried about it being too overused to the point that your story wouldn't look original anymore, you could change the gender of the main character/villain or change the relationship (ie., from brother/sister to cousin or something).
