Our local library doesn't even charge late fees.
I have read dozens of books that I wouldn't have otherwise.
Libraries are awesome.

Thank you for outlining my loss of faith in what I knew as America.

The Stand, uncut. About 280,000 words, I think.
The Grapes of Wrath was about 170,000.
Agents/publishers want writers to bring in a sweet spot of 90,000 words, plus/minus. Hm.

If I enjoy reading something, I'm apt to read it again.
I write what I enjoy reading.
A couple weeks ago, I picked up one of my books. "Crap! This is good! Who wrote this, anyway?"
Yeah, I read my own stuff. And I like it. If that's arrogant, it's also factual.

I dunno. I'm a social media dunce. I get a follower, I follow back, I post, and the post goes unheeded into the ether.
Wishing you better luck than I've had.

My favorite is The Dead Zone. It's sorta horror but more suspense and thriller. Very well-written, very relatable main character in a situation he didn't ask for but must deal with.
If you want to write, On Writing is great. Snapped me out of a 12-year funk.

That would be hard to say, but one under the James Patterson brand. I don't think he wrote it. Not only unenjoyable but painfully formulaic and awkward, full of contemporary cultural references and chapters that stopped and restarted in the middle of a scene.
Didn't finish it, not even close.

Well, crap. There's no way, after all ST-TNG, Voyager, Deep Space 9, and yes, Stargate SG-1, that I can identify with that.
