I like reading about:

Stories that are made up but are set during historical periods.The real world, but at some time in the futureExperience and places that are very different than my own.Fantastical worlds where anything can happen.Terrifying situations with plenty of gory details.People with secrets.Falling in love.Someone on a journey to discover their own identity.The real world, but with a magical or supernatural twist.Women having fun.Stories and characters that are familiar to where I live and what I do.
I am interested in:

Stories that will make me laugh.Ordinary people going on an adventure.Exploring classic stories.Galaxies far, far away.Art and artists.The books everyone's talking about.Countries, cultures and people different from my own.Invented societies after a devastating war.Detectives solving crimes.Real people and their lives.Real events that have shaped history
I think zombies are:

Boring.Awesome.I have no strong opinions on zombies.
A story where two people from totally different walks of life meet under strange and dangerous circumstances, fall in love - against all odds - and then have to fight to be together, sounds . . .

Boring and lame, who cares?Kind of cliche, but in the right setting, I'd be interested.Compelling and romantic, I'm rooting for them!
