Marami sa mga sumusulat ng novel na hindi alam gamitin ang prologue. Naglalagay sila ng prologue, pero ang laman ay eksena ng pangyayari na gusto nilang isulat lang doon dahil iyon ang middle of the story or iyon ang almost ending of the story. Mali ang kaisipang ito.

Sa prologue malalaman kung ano ang laman ng isang story, hindi doon isinusulat ang mga usapan na lalamanin ng story sa gitna. Dahil mula umpisa ay may kinalaman sa takbo ng istorya na naisipan mo. Hanggang matapos ay connected lahat iyon kung paano mo isinulat ang prologue. Ito ang magiging basehan mo sa iyong binubuong story.

Example:

1. The Prologue I made for MY ESCAPE WAY o I LOVE YOU More than You'll Ever Know. The whole topic is about racing and ambition but you wouldn't notice the inner standing how it will going to work later on. If you are going to analyze the sentences there you would, well, see what will going on after everything.

2. Ticket To Your Heart prologue were tackling about dignity and principles of life versus the LOVE itself and the material things. The story behind is at the authors hand on how I will showcase the characters to portray the said topic.
