When the economy isn't working. When everything seems rehashed--every decade or so--punk or something like it comes from below ground and takes the front seat. Blandness and same-same can't find many ears, etc. I have felt for the last few years that fiction is on the precipice of this type of thing, too. Readers need change--weird settings, exotic settings and escapism. Stories that entertain but also leave something behind, something memorable. A reader can point to that story, several years after the fact, and remember what they were doing and the state-of-the-state the first time they read it.<br /><br />Good for Rush. Good for anyone who sticks to their vision.<br /><br />I loved this post.

I still wrote them, but braced myself for a lot of rejections. Turned out that people like those stories just fine.
