#WritersCoffeeClub 3/13 Are you mindful of your readers' expectations? How so?
I'd like to think so. Some expectations deserve to be met, so there's a challenge there as to how to do so without being predictable.
Other expectations deserve to be teased out and/or denied. I try to play around with those. Life frequently doesn't deliver everything we expect and I feel it serves the writing to explore that.
After all, another word for expectation is assumption.
