I think I posted a topic like this in the summer, but that was a long time ago, so it doesn't count [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

What I'm going to say has probably been said before, but anyhow: I don't think you have to be a certain kind of person to enjoy fantasy. However, I do think that you have to have an imagination, an appreciation for things out-of-the-ordinary, and an ability to dream.

It's something I feel very clearly in my heart, so I thought it was going to be easy to explain, but it's a lot harder than I originally thought. I hope this makes at least a little bit of sense.
