"That's SO Cliche!"

The cliche gets incorrectly used when someone reads a story, then gets an idea on how he would do it a bit differently. The characters tend to be stiff and predictable. I avoid this (I hope) by reading non fiction for plot ideas and have the plot suggest characters. What caused the split in the genetic make up that ultimately became us? I got this idea from overdosing on the Discovery channel. I found the creature who predates the famous "Lucy" fossil. The main character is non human so the story has no dialogue. A plot of land that stayed on the market for over two years inspired a book and tons of research on a bank that takes a chance on selling a house to a group of homeless people. My sons coin collection inspired a story about the Civil War, told from the southern point of view. You avoid cliches by NOT knowing what's been done. Don't look for something similar to see how a thing was done. Be willing to do some research. You want to get paid? Realize that writing is work. Hopefully it is work you enjoy.

your question is kind of funny because if you define cliche what you are asking is "which is the most overused overused word"?
But I would say it's "what goes around comes around" That's used an awful lot

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion... (as if the bad grammar in that sentence is not bad enough... That saying grates on my nerves, especially when people use opinion as fact...)
