    I honestly think that changes are really good. Getting out of your comfort zone will always make you grow as a person, and as a writer; of course there is always some risk involved, but you know what they say: Nothing risked….

    I think it’s great when authors break out of the tried & true & branch out into something different. Thanks for the chance.

    Excellent post, Ally! I’ve struggled a bit with wanting to stay in my comfort zone, then broke out of that bit by bit with the anthologies we’ve been part of. Then I went really the hell out there with that last novella. I like stretching. It doesn’t mean I won’t write in my comfort zone again, but I do enjoy expanding my horizons.

    Nicely put. You’re my hero tonight! =)

    During my pre-driving years, I read many of my sister’s gothic romances, at first because they were handy, and then because I actually started to like them. Please finish The Night Orchard quickly! And should you need a beta reader….

    Wow, Popess! Down sounds like my cuppa tea (well, coffee). And Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes. Yes! Change is good and will be even better to me soon, I hope. But don’t change who you are. The Popess is a good Popess 😉
