I write because I live to tell stories. And while I do consider the reader to a certain extent, I don’t write solely for them because that would be an impossible task and remove all the verve and passionate from my work. I write about what moves me, and while that may appeal to some I’m not here to win the world over. If I wanted to write commercial fiction instead of strange novels, I would. If I wanted to write the things I know will get me traction, I would. You don’t like reading the long articles and essays I write? Then read someone else’s shorter work. There’s a difference between adapting to audience and trends and completely pandering to them.
