Comsie Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Whenever writing, or reading the work of a particular author, it's common to see similar themes in their stories. It may be accidental, or it might have been done to create a certain level of familiarity...but it's there. It's almost like seeing Stephen King or Alfred Hitchcock in one of their own movies. But whether they're writing many different stories with a bunch of new characters each time, or a dedicated writer to one long series or novel...do these familiarities begin to bore you as a reader? Do they become predictable or tiresome? Or is it something that you look forward to with every turn of the virtual page? Let us know what you think! And if you write you're own stuff...how do you go about changing up the vibe often enough to make each story or chapter stand out as its own 'presentation'...instead of just another one for the heap?
