Or the other way around: something you like to read, but don’t like to write? (Not that you struggle to write, but hate doing it at all. Even if you are good at it.)
I was pondering this question myself and hadn’t come up with too many answers. Vague ideas, like how I don’t like describing the environment, but I can enjoy a good descriptive passage in someone else’s work. On the other hand, everything I like to write I like to read.
However, I know some people don’t like reading other people’s renditions of certain tropes. I’m interested in hearing about it.
I can’t think of any genres or tropes off the top of my head which count for me, but I know there are some of those too!
Hard agree. The thing I like the most about a lot of horror is the worldbuilding. It’s the ones that make me think I enjoy. Then again, I think there is a large difference between scary and startling. A lot of people consolidate the two. I’m easily startled, but I’m not always easily scared.
Like where genres blur out into other genres but it doesn’t always go two ways! “A rectangle is a square but a square is never a rectangle.”
