*Mumbles to Self*
Opinions/ Suggestions Wanted
I have been working with a story since about freshman year of high-school. I have since re-written it a few times each time trying a different approach, this time around I am changing names and using a first person POV.

To sum up my story it is about a young hispanic girl (they say write what you know well I'm a young hispanic girl so I will know a LOT) named Luna who moves to the town of Sterling Falls (which ironically doesn't have a waterfall of any sort though maybe I'll change that) with her father who was given a job at a quickly growing company (name to be determined). The owner of the company has grown to be a powerful man and his children have become very popular in the local highschool.

I'm still playing with names for that family because 1) they are werewolves 2) I want their names to relate to wolves in some way. The children aren't blood related to him except the slutty character who for now is called Sierra the two boys were turned as prospective mates but that didn't pan out. For reasons i haven't determined yet they can't leave ... maybe pack connections or something.

getting to the point of suggestions I ask;

What season should I make it? (i'm thinking fall-ish)
How many suitors should the girl have including the wolf boys? (there are just the two and I'm unsure about 'sibling' love triangles)
Would having a brother who she thought was dead but really isn't be too much?

I think you're taking to hard. Honestly, write a rough draft of what you want. I think all of the things you asked about are fairly good ideas. You should try them and if it doesn't work out, just try again. Writing is a trial and error process. If you want, I will read it and give you an opnion. And a bit of advice for the critic inside you:
Shut up and don't change anything you put! It might look stupid to you, but it might be really good to the story.
