I've always been fascinated by the concept of time.
I don't consider genre while writing.
What I do with the story itself varies of course, but what I want to do is to present the world so that the reader can access it without tripping over the details.
Happily, fantastic fiction is slowly gaining in status.
I'm just being honest about the fact that a second language won't resonate with you like the first does.
Your first thought is often the best one. You know, the one that felt too weird or silly or stupid. Trust your imagination - it knows what it's doing.
