I was going to be stupidly selfish and want to see like the first chapter or something, but I'd kinda rather you finish and publish it, to be honest. All genres have their tropes; it's impossible to avoid them entirely. The 'intentionally twist the tropes' thing has been done before, too, but I trust you to do it a hell of a lot better than the average!
