IMPROMPTU PROMPTED BLOGGERISH

DO I ACT LIKE I REALLY BELIEVE WHAT I'M SAYING?

I object to the word 'genre'.  If I was forced to pick a favorite genre I would say, 'Literary Fiction', which, in my opinion, isn't a genre at all.  I prefer books which you all might say are made up of more than one genre.  Some  prime examples are many of  David Mitchell's works, in particular 'Cloud Atlas'.  I also love what is called historical fiction - Connie Willis writes excellent science fiction which is also excellent historical fiction; Erik Larson writes excellent history that reads like excellent historical fiction.  I have read things in every genre I can think of.  I have liked some works in every genre I can think of.  I think I probably just like anything that I could categorize as Literary Fiction.  I dislike categorizaton.  (All of this also applies to 'write in')


When chosen to be part of a movie I'm an actor.  Just like real life!
