The title has got nothing to do with your respiratory rate nor does it imply that I have the power to count every puff of air that you give out (not that I would mind having said power). It could more or less imply that I’ve stalker tendencies.

My name...Well, my name should be least of your worries, my dear. The important thing is what is your name, sweetheart. A little too forward? Can’t help it. It’s not my fault that I’m a natural charmer. Never mind the attitude you will get used to it. Wasn’t expecting that now were you? Yes, I knew it!

Basic Tips to Write Better Chosen Ones

Write about a prince/ss whose beloved gets trapped by the villain in a tower... except our hero/ine is deathly terrified of heights.

Your princess's mother died when she was young, and now she lives in a huge castle with her father and set-mother. This time around, her biological parent is out to get her.

Your prince/ss discovers one day that s/he is not the heir to the throne they have been raised to believe they are. Maybe s/he is the heir to a rival kingdom? Maybe s/he is a commoner?

Clichés are adorable! Write a classic fairy tale: trapped princess, rescuing prince, evil queen, the whole shebang.

...but then to bounce back as the creative, original, break-through writer you are, write about the long-lost heir/ess being a different species than the majority of the kingdom.

While we're on the non-traditional path, write a story from the perspective of the evil witch!

Maybe a modern sort of fairy tale, where the missing prince/ss is the biggest believer in democracy?

Write about a prince who goes to rescue a princess, gets kidnapped himself, so she has to break out and save him.

Everyone has a countdown on their hand, like a watch. Your character was born at zero.

Everyday, to sign in to work/school/being awake, everyone must slide a card in a check-in machine. One day, when you character slides his/her card, an error message appears on screen, informing him/her that the number does not exist.

At age seventeen, tattoos appear on everyone's body, that mark their place in the society. Your character doesn't get them/gets tattoos no one else has.

Your character wakes up to find one person missing from all photographs, lists, and memories of other people who knew him/her.

It is a widely-known fact in your character's world that going past the biggest tree/the fence/the lake/whatever will result in death, but when your character accidentally ends up there, he/she finds another city.

Your character is an archeologist, and his/her team find things from the late-twentieth, early-twenty-first centuries, and they try to figure out what they were for.

Stealing is not illegal in your character's world, because no one ever steals. One day, your character notices that some things they own have been missing.
