    A story becomes cliched when it is written using cliched language, not simply the plot/content itself. It really depends on how you've written it. The idea itself sounds okay to me. My creative writing was a narrative about a man skating through his childhood town realising that he could no...

    how can i improve my writing?

    - Read widely across a variety of genres. - My writing improved when I stopped over-thinking and just wrote i.e. I let the phrases come naturally rather than forcing it. I'm not sure if this applies to you though. - Write a lot and get people to edit your work. I still have a lot of...
