Right from the beginning, you need to
grab your audience with something intriguing but relatable.
Established writers have more luxury with their writing because
they’ve established trust with their audience—previous popular
works of these writers create enough familiarity and confidence in
their writing that they can write with more flexibility. Established
writers can take more time with the story in the beginning, and fans
will stay with it, knowing that the author will deliver. However, new
writers face a situation that might be contrary to their preferred
writing style, because new audiences are likely to be less willing to
give them the benefit of the doubt. Instead, they may impatiently
move on to something else if a new writer has failed to really grab
their attention in the first few pages. When writing science fiction,
this can be even more challenging, because the writer is inviting the
reader into an imagined world that might require too much faith
upfront.
