I agree it is fun imagining what someone might do in situation x, and of course if you do it well enough you might even get paid for your bit of make believe not to mention the thrill of seeing your name in print on something that may catch someone's interest yrs after you are gone. In a way a story or book is like a shared dream between the author and reader. I have enjoyed many such experiences that others have written and would like to add to that supply myself.
