Hey, this is cool! I wasn't expecting to get so many responses. I guess I'll just throw a few questions up here and y'all can respond at your leisure. I'm sort of dipping my toes into science fiction with a paranormal thriller I'm currently writing. All you really need to know is; alien vampires.

1. What do you like best about science fiction? What attracts you to the genre and what keeps you coming back to it?

2. How much explanation of technology do you prefer? Is it enough to understand what's happening, or do you tend to want a scientific explanation for how things work?

3. Is there anything you dislike about science fiction, or any pitfalls to the genre you think a writer should avoid?

All responses are appreciated! I may come up with other questions but even just a few answers to number 1 would be helpful.
