I have always loved story - I escaped within it as a child, I read every day, I love figuring out the complex layers of an author's work.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love stories. I just enjoy telling stories and watching what these characters do - although writing continues to be just as hard as it always was.
I have always loved really dense, complicated stories with lots of layers, tons of obscure literary references, and a plethora of inside jokes.
As a child, I loved story books and wanted to be in them so desperately and live the stories.
I am obsessed with story. I had a late awakening in life. In college was the first time that I understood what you could do with a story and what a good novel is - literary value and subtext and irony and everything.
There is a plethora of topics to explore. I sometimes think I may never live long enough to explore all of the unique story lines I have either in my head or waiting in my computer file.
I've always liked stories. I'm always reading, ever since I was a kid. I've always been reading and wanting to be in some other world.
I've loved thrillers and spy stories since I was a kid. It's probably not a bad rule of thumb to write the kinds of stories you love to read.
The stories I love the most are where the author has a lot of empathy for everyone. The author loves their characters and takes their situations really seriously, and you feel like you're just dropped into a different world.
I love intricate plotting and exciting twists, but I realize more that people enjoy a good story in a simple, focused way.
I read almost exclusively nonfiction when I read, because even though it's harder to find a great true story, when you find one, the idea that it actually happened is immensely powerful.That's what moves me the most.
