Trivial

Questions and themes discussed between the two writers are trivial. To write series or alone-standing novels? Assumptions about reders like that they just want to read the same (or about the same characters) again and again flourish in this talk. Thus writing series seemingly becomes a sign of succes / 'good quality' (maybe because that is where the money runs?). This is sad, because at least one of the two writers writes in my opinion excellent books (I haven't read anything by the other). And I'm sure they could have gone into much more interesting questions about their stories and how they relate to things going on in peoples everyday lives all over.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
