Question: What is your favourite style of creative writing to read!?
Romance!? Thriller!? Constant, focussed conflict!?

An autobiography, a monologue perhaps!? Or just a story!?

My personal favourites are streams of consciousness like The Catcher in the Rye; I was always writing them for English assignments when I was younger!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I like "Catcher," too, and character-driven fiction in general!. I really like to get into a character's head!.

I am not a fan of genre fiction at all (sci-fi, romance, thriller, etc!.)!.

Pick up "On the Road" by Jack Kerouac next!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I've never been into short stories!.!.!.mainly novels because I can live in the characters' worlds a lot longer, and there is far more detail and development!. I enjoy historical novels and fantasy mostly!. But I also love to read biographies about writers, or people in general who are interesting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
