Why did ya’ll pick up writing? And second question why do you prefer the genre you’re currently written? Third and final question, would you ever branch out into a different genre?
1) I like to create and where I grew up, there was absolutely nothing to do. I lived in a rural af town on the edge of crown land where the only corner store closed at 6 pm. I mean... my graduating class was less than 30 people.
2) I don't really have a preference for genres. I've written everything from sci-fi to modern fantasy over the years. Even wrote a story based on the 1880s in London but featuring supernaturals from LKH's stuff. I would have to say that I have a preference for theme though. It's usually almost always an outsider looking in or someone forced into a world/situation that is completely outside what they know. I prefer the first because again, grew up rural and being artistic wasn't exactly "normal". Second is because I like reading something different than what I experience in my own life. It's why I like reading slice of life if it focuses on a different culture but if it's closer to mine, I won't read it.
3) Yes. I'll write whatever I feel like. Whether it's modern fantasy or fanfiction set in the Carpathian Mountains in the 1400s, whatever the mood strikes, I'll write about.
