I like this idea that you need to know why you’re motivated to write in the first place. There is no niche called curiosity but that has always been a key to my creativity as a writer. Even being a keen observer of people has always lead me to: Did you see that cloud? I wonder what he’s looking for behind the last can on that shelf? Why is she changing her clothes in her car- before she goes into the house? Did I really see a flash of ass as I came out of the house? If I dropped twenty dollars I wonder who would pick it up and what they would do next- better not try it in front of the drop-in centre?
Curious- three Tesla’s in the Dollar store parking lot- are they the owners, or is this how I get enough money to buy a Tesla - only buy things from Taiwan?
My point - curiosity is part of every story I write.
Hum... very interesting. I niche.
The arguments for and against niching seem very equally balanced Joyce, so I guess it is horse for courses, and stick with whatever works! :)
