this was a question someone posted on another site i visit, so i thought i would ask it here as well. i was just wondering why you read fantasy (and science fiction) stories?
for me, i love the escape they offer. i can read about anything else, but there's nothing i love more than the magic a fantasy book offer, lol (i know, not the best answer, but it's my excuse, lol :p). i also write (for fun, as i'm too sacred of my work being criticized by strangers/friends), so reading fantasy stories help fuel that imagination of mine :p.
