When you read fiction of any genre, do you tend to gravitate toward authors and/or main characters of your own gender, or not really and it’s fine either way?
In my reading, it seems about 50/50. P...
I definitely do. William Gibson, Neal Stephenson, Neil Gaiman, Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Daniel Suarez, Philip K. Dick.
The only female novelist I think I've read was JK Rowling. And it was pretty meh.
Meawhile my wife reads a lot of female novelists; mostly young adult fantasy stuff. So while it's not normative, it does seem possible that it is normal, statistically speaking.
Looking forward to you breaking the pattern that I only just realized I have.
