Since I have a four star hotel and a rock star involved in my novel I was wondering if I had to use a big city setting instead of a medium sized city.

I’m having my main character live in portland, Oregon and I need some information about Franklin High School. I’d prefer the information to be from people who have attended the school because I feel that google doesn’t give me enough insight. I would like as much information as possible. Thanks!

There are two breeds of dragons in Ilerinia, Firebreathers and Iceblowers. The two races typically breed together, and their offspring are either Firebreathers or Iceblowers. However, when the balance between good and evil shift, the dragons are called to fight on the side of good to return balance to the forces if the balance of evil overrides good. When this happens, a hatchling is born with the abilities of both breeds. This special hatchling along with a chosen human (my main character) have the duty of fighting on the side of good.

Another help would be if someone could help me think of a name for this said relationship.
When I started writing this story, what is now a main subplot was my main plot, and since adding this idea, my story has started to take on more the form I want it to. One of my editors says that the idea is too cliche, and my main character being female is just a very obvious way of differing the stories.

My main character is a princess whose life has been at stake since she were born. She is the only ligitimate child of the king and queen, and the king has an illegitimate older son whose mother wants the throne for her own son, so she has been trying to kill my main character since she was born. But she is not my main antagonist. My main antagonist is a king of another nation who is corrupted by evil, who is trying to stop a prophecy involving my main character from coming true. My main character is destined along with her dragon to restore the balance of good and evil, and some other ideas that are still in the works.
Actually, in response to number five, the son does join the evil king and takes a band of followers, a very large band of followers, with him.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
xXLeeBee: Thank you for that great suggestion, but I excluded omniscient on purpose because I thought it would be a little more difficult to pull off. I may reconsider, though, but thanks again:)

Ok… Not looking for something to write it for me. Not looking for a magic wand… Just looking for a tool that will help me manage information and the storyline.

I wrote books before, yet none of them were too good or published (i never tried to go to a publisher but I could guess the outcome). Can someone give me tips and good words or small ideas to use. Or you could provide a link to a VIDEO that could explain, but only video. Thank you to everyone who answers and especially thank you to who ever receives best answer!
