When I'm writing nonfiction, expository prose as I'm writing now, in my mind I'm speaking to an audience of listeners. It's outward-directed. When I write fiction, though, it's the opposite -- it's very much inward-directed. Then I'm inside my own head most of the time, writing for myself. I only consider how a reader would react until much, much later in the process.
Does anyone else feel that difference?
