I love the craft of good writing as much as I love the craft of good visual art. It's an experiential thing for me. If I can become immersed in the little segment of world presented to me then I am having a great experience. I LOVE a good story, hate trite writing, love new ideas or twists on existing ideas, and adore the immersion I get from being enveloped by a book.
Then there's the informational aspect of reading. The ability to learn some new facts or opinions on history or a take on a person's life and their place in history or just vicariously experience a part of the world I've never been to. Again, it's the transportation to a different place and time that I love.
