#WritersCoffeeClub Feb 11
Are some genres taken more seriously than others? How does this make you feel?
Some people feel that fantasy and scifi aren't as "good," interesting, evocative, and moving--speaking to the human condition--as bog-standard literary fiction which takes place in our regular world.
Those people are wrong.
How do I feel? Sorry for them. They're missing out on some wonderful literature and exciting, magical stories.
