I Like Good Writers

They is always going to be critics. The quality of the story will always be able to fit someone's wants. I do like stories that are thought provoking. But many times just sheer brain candy works for me as well. One of my favorite forms of candy is just from sheer imagination. Like can the writer make a really awesome world. Can they make me feel like I'm in this large world. This is usually why I like details so much. It draws you in and fleshes out the story and makes you feel like the world is big and the reader can just get lost in it.
This is also often why I don't like horror. There tends not to be a story. It is all about trying to scared or in the case of some disturb the audience. Jump scares are cheap. They don't add suspense other than fear of when it will happen again. A very unpleasant feeling. Like the old Goosebumps series. A lot of that stuff was just freaky. That was an example of good horror.
I also like hopeful stories. I see enough of humanity tearing itself apart and while I can take it in my stories I want there to be a good ending for all the trouble. People would complain I'm not being realistic though. But to them I say, "Really? Fiction isn't realistic?" (sarcasm)
