I sometimes wonder, though, if I approach fiction in this way because I grew up on fairy tales and started reading science fiction (which quickly led to the discovery of chapter book fantasy) in third grade. What if I had kept to BSC, Green Gables, and Mandy?
(Just as fanfiction makes me pay attention to what isn't said or shown and to character dynamics. As well as giving me a higher tolerance for poor prose in exchange for good story.)
