Are Vamps and Werewolves too overdone?

The only difference between zombies and vampies is freel will:
Zombi " Brainss..."
Vampire " Bloood. But first, I shall eat this waffle."

Yay! He and Kaja have a real gift for making each pane of their webcomics delicious. I encourage everyone I know to check out their site and buy their dead-tree versions of their comics as they are all delicious!
Getting 'special syrup' for the waffle,

Hmmm, sounds interesting Velgron. I like post-apocalyptic stuff. My WIP is sort of PA, but not to an extent that a bunch of people were wiped out.
Good luck with the book!

Owch, sounds like a bad emo version of Billy and the werewolves.

Late joining the discussion again.
But just my two cents. Make sure you have characters who just happen to be vampires or werewolves. Not vampires or werewolves who are characters.

I've gotten to where I hate vampire based books. It's overdone and most of the vampires these days are just emo/goth people with too much makeup and some kind of primal sex urge. Not to mention that a vast majority of the young teen (most likely female) are "raping" the Twilight series. but that is just my opinion of course.
