Forget fads, forget perfection, forget intensity someone said.

Oh No. Surely not. Sorry to be awkward here but surely Intensity, fads and the occasional attempt at perfection are the things. Intensity, Hermann Hesse, Ernest Hemmingway, Shakespeare, and others were known for it. Should we sweep it aside?

Fads, Like, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Neuromancer, Watership Down, Gormenghast, should be cast

away?

Perfection: should we also cast to the wind (or Burn) Miss Smillas feeling for Snow, Tales of the Klondike, The Snow Girl, Romeo, and Juliet. I say no. We should embrace those that are intense, perfectionists and those that create fads. Sometimes those crazy people create the best works of fiction our world has even read.
