How often do you read fiction?
I was a hardcore reader before things happened. I would dare say I rather reading fiction over interacting with people. :F
What kind of fiction do you read if you do?
I definitely like suspense/thriller, fantasy and sci-fi. I was introduced to reading through philosophy, though. So, anything is good for me, really.
Do you enjoy sexual content in the fiction of your choice? A lot or a little?
Of course. It spices up things. I just don't like random sexual content in stories that don't need it... so it's a Half and Half kind of deal for me.
How much action?
Again, these things need to have support in the story. Action definitely needs to have a drive, otherwise it's just another fanfiction Duke Nukem story. Nothing wrong with blatant action, but still...
Gore?
Gore pertains to certain fiction genres. If it fits with the story, why not? I rather the gore be described poetically than scientifically, though. If it's written like a medic would write a report, it makes me lose interest in an instant. It is more or less like the sexual content at this point.
Do you like it when the ending is a happy one, or prefer them to be more realistic/twisted?
Happy endings when the story truly deserves it. I hate it when the story builds up to nothing. It leaves a bitter aftertaste. Random sad endings are never a good twist either, as much as the authors like to think so.
The problem with realistic endings for me is that they are boring. I just can't see how the character will just walk into the sunset while a shit ton of things happened before. Those are lazyass endings imo.
Anyway, ranted offtopic.
Yes, I like exaggerated happy/twisted endings.
Just my opinion. :D
