Writing what we like
When we're children we usually have favorite books that we read again and again. Some of mine were The Wizard of Oz, Heidi and Black Beauty. When I began trying my own hand at writing fiction, I realized that one of my favorite things to read about is characters that have been displaced from their usual surroundings. It's the very type of story that will pull me in right away. You might want to think about what type of story is an irresistible read for you, because that's probably also going to be the type of story you love to write.
