Why would you write something you didn't even like?
Not to mention, how can you possibly get a feel for a genre or line by reading one book?
(I added you to my friends list - hope that's OK.)
Actually, that's another good way of posing the question: Why would you write something you didn't like? I confess that there are times when, during the slog of a book, I hate everything about it, or am sure everyone else will, or a combination of the two -- but the thing that drives me is a certain passion & love of the story itself. I may blow it. None of us hit the high notes 100% of the time. But.
I consider the friends list to be a reading list, and I'm perfectly happy to be read, so yes, I'm fine with that <g>.
