Fiction or Nonfiction?

[Otulissa]

Do you like fiction or nonfiction? Perhaps both?

And...also, feel free to debate a bit on which one is better and why.  

[Irishroseh]

Fiction FTW! :]  

[Otulissa]

FTW? What does that stand for?  

[XxStaraxX]

I mainly prefer fiction. However, if the writer can really tell the story in an interesting way, I can tolerate nonfiction as well. Creative nonfiction is good. Like...narrative essays. I like those. But I usually read novels.  

[Otulissa]

I sometimes read nonfiction novels. Or, sometimes factual books and field guides.  

[Irishroseh]

For The Win. :]

Yeah I think I've read one or two nonfics on my own.
://  

[Otulissa]

Ohh! Now I know what FTW stands for. For the win, eh? That's better. I had asked before, but no one had replied... Oh well. xD;; At least I know now!

For the win.

I like that.

I mostly prefer fiction. It has to be something that intrests me if it's going to be non fiction.  

[Irishroseh]

Hear Hear!!  

[Otulissa]

Hm...I agreen, Gamin. I only read nonfiction books that I like. Sometimes I like history -- especially lots of battle tactics, and also nature-related/biology or zoology books. Field guides are good. 3nodding Hm...  

[SunnyNights]

fiction > nonfiction  

[Otulissa]

Nice equation~! I have some too:

Non + Fiction = Nonfiction

Nonfiction - Non = Fiction


cool  

[Sun Salutation]

As a fiction writer myself, I prefer Fiction naturally. But of course, I also like a classic Nonfiction book, like The Diary of Anne Frank.

 

[Otulissa]

Mmmhmm ! I love fiction, but I also love nonfiction. For nonfiction, I enjoy classics... but also contemporary twists on things. I always like reading books on animals and nature -- like field guides, and scientific articles, and the like.  

[Chocolate-Chip-Heaven]

I prefer Fiction, but I once read The Diary Of Anne Frank and you really could not stop me reading it! I even read it whilst eating my dinner, so My brother said i was a freak, for loving a book so much..but it was a good book! Sad, but good!

P.S Thanks for adding me to this guild! biggrin
