The darkness was surrounding me and my heart was pounding deathly fast, threatening to burst from my chest. My skin was crawling, maybe because of the freezing temperature, or maybe because of the fear digging at my stomach. Either way, one thing was certain. I had no idea where I was. All I knew was I had to escape. I ran as fast as I could and it felt like no matter where I ran I never felt any walls, or trees, or anything. My throat burned and my eyes watered. I felt this bitter taste in my throat.
"Please somebody help me!," I screamed. What is happening to me?!? As soon as I thought all hope was lost, I saw a miniscule beam of light. In the center stood the silhouette of a man. Finally I ran as fast as my feet could take me. I finally reached him, my throat now felt exactly like it did a few minutes ago but worse. A thousand times worse.
"Please you have to help me! I don't know where I am! My throat is burning, I feel so weak!"
He looked at me for a second. Judging by his face he looked about my age. His skin was so flawless, his eyes made me forget how to breath, his beauty seemed to make time stand still. But all he did was look at me, staring and grinning. Suddenly I remembered my burning throat.
"Um hello!? Please tell me what is going on!," I could barely get the words out, I clenched my teeth together to stop from screaming.
Finally he spoke
"Doesn't feel so great does it?" He asked in a serious almost angry voice.
"Excuse me?!?" My face was red as I fumed with anger. Why couldn't this guy just help me? But before I had timed to ask, he jumped on top of me, pinning me to the ground. His fingers wrapped around my forearm so tight I thought I'd wake up with no arms at all. But it took me less than a millisecond to realize I might not wake up period. Then this strange man did something completely unexpected, his teeth ripped into my flesh, I felt my blood being drained out of my body, The earth was spinning, and then everything went black.
i know vampire stories are a challenge to make original ever since the whole twilight thing. but dont worry nobody is gonna twinkle in the sun. also if you have advice please tell me because one thing i have trouble with is setting the way i write up. like i have trouble seperating what people say and quotes and conversations. im just a beginner so please spare my feelings lmao thanks
p.s.- please tell me also if this is a book ud consider reading. i know the beginning seems like the big climax but trust me it aint.

I actually like it… i'm not into the vampire thing since twilight but i like your story..
your story was really good u should keep doing what u r doing u really should get this published
Why are all the vampires in vampire stories good-looking? I mean, they're the living dead, almost like zombies, nothing attractive about that. They're supposed to be monsters and really grotesque looking. I hate it how all writers now are making them good-looking. BUT, besides that, it was good
Good luck with your writing.
I know this isn't what you're looking for but if you want to survive in the literary world the first thing you're going to have to do is cut the whole Valley Girl "I-can't-spell-easy-words" speak. Also remember to capitalize the first words of each sentence and to add apostrophes when appropriate. And no "aints." You'll find that the first people to read your books when you start submitting are English majors, and English majors are notorious grammar Nazis who wouldn't take kindly to this linguistic abomination.
lol "twinkle in the sun".That was great so far! I would definitely read it. One thing you might want to check, though. You wrote in both past tense and present tense. You may want to change that to make it less confusing. But other than that, great. You had me interested from the first sentence.
The first thing an editor would say about this story is to get rid of 90% of the exclamation marks, especially the ones anywhere near a question mark. It's distracting and doesn't make sense. You also use a ton of passive voice, which is nearly criminal in the creative writing world. And make sure your tense is consistent – don't change from past to present tense at any point outside of dialogue. But outside of basic grammar and form, this isn't the sort of story I would read, but I could see younger readers and readers who are into the whole vampire thing enjoying it.
just read the first girls answer twice and youll know what i had to say.
Thank you for not making him glitter in the sun!Other than a few misspellings, you are on a great track for your story.It seems like it would be interesting! Keep it up!Also, if you want to stay sincere to vampire fiction, and not screw it up like Meyer did, read Anne Rice for research. I'm sure it will help you a lot!
