I believe that fiction is easier to write than reality or autobiographies, there is a few reasons to why I believe so. When you think fiction, what comes to your mind? Maybe it's a flying beluga or perhaps a world that has been eclipsed in darkness for centuries as the inhabitants live under a dreary enchantment that can unravel to their inevitable end. Fiction leads the mind to that of the imaginative, fantasy-related genre that just glues the reader to the book, it draws that 'magical' feeling into our perspective.
That's just where it begins, on a given set of terms, it can be used to assist us in trying to understand what we can't manage to understand with science, a series of indescribable phenomena. Such as that of the Twilight Zone series, this show in general was about using your imagination to try to understand what it is that science can't determine as fact or fiction itself.
I also believe that deep down inside all of us, there is that 'magical' desire that we wish to have as a reality, but not all of us can see it as easily as the next person. Fiction takes that element of desire and draws it onto the page in what we see as the interesting, yet satisfying thing that we might want to be or live in.
We all live in a world that has such limited supplies to entertain us because our attention span is getting smaller within each generation it comes by. The more advanced our technology develops, the further this problem will go, but why is this? The child's mind is known to run on imagination, their minds drift out of place. Now that is a bad thing, they give into their desires to try and be on top of the world and this can lead to cockiness. What it takes is to whip the kids into shape is discipline, good old-fashioned discipline, which can be served on a silver platter or as a slap to the face.
I don't belive that fiction writing is for everyone, there is some exceptions, just throwing that out there. Here is my example: Imagine if a kid reads the Twilight series, I don't mean that this kid is probably going to start having sexual fantasies of vampires, but by reading this, they will not understand the real complications that love can kick up into real life.
Just keep this in mind, fiction may not be the best thing for people to read, but it is by far the more favorable type because it can be comical, dramatic and possibly whitty. This is what I have to say, some of the fiction writers are quite incapable of making their story captivating and moving (I'm not pointing myself out as an exceptional writer here). For those who are capable of making of doing so, I would pat them on the back for doing a good job of displaying the imaginative wonder that they were seeking while writing their literature.
