#openness

We may not always agree with every one of our neighbors. That's life. And it's part of living in such a diverse and dense city.

In Japan they prefer the realistic style. They like answers and conclusions, but my stories have none. I want to leave them wide open to every possibility. I think my readers understand that openness. ↗
