i still hold that some situations/people hold inherently more drama and potential and intensity. but of course, all such things are subjective~:)
Quite true.
I think the thing I was getting from your post and some of the comments to it is that fictional people are more interesting than real ones. I believe someone might have said real people are boring and I just found that an astounding idea. The professional writing I've done has all been memoir however, so maybe that's just me.
I did spend the majority of my youth with my face in a book, rarely taking it out to actually interact with others. I find over the years, I read much less than I used to, mostly because I'm too busy prying into the business of folks I both know and don't know. Heh.
