So.  What I think it is <i>unlikely<\/i> I will write:<\/p>\n<p>-A book in which nothing supernatural, fantastical, or science-fictional happens.  I enjoy reading realistic books, but when it comes to writing, I find I need some sort of speculative &#8220;what if&#8221; to keep my interest engaged.  <\/p>\n<p>-A picture book.  I need more words than that.  Chapter books and early readers also unlikely; I will not discount upper middle grade, however.<\/p>\n<p>-An adult novel.  I have hundreds of ideas written down and so far none of them would work better as an adult novel than a YA novel.  I think my creativity is just inherently programmed toward writing for teens.  However, I&#8217;ll admit this is more likely than either of the above.<\/p>\n<p>Um&#8230;  I think that&#8217;s about all I can safely eliminate.  There really aren&#8217;t any topics or plot lines that I find so distasteful I can&#8217;t imagine ever going there&#8211;in fact, I find there&#8217;s often a lot of value in going places with your writing that make you uncomfortable!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What genre or story plot are you likely to never write about?
