Fantasy stories tend to be superhero chosen one narratives, science fiction something else. I would say from my position in the entertainment field that the audience for fantasy is much more broad than the audience for sci-fi.

I think you might bounce off of fantasy because you fundamentally don’t believe that you’re more special than anyone else

Replying to @vgr @ReclusiveWizard
Perhaps not coincidentally I’ve usually been treated as somehow special by people around me for one reason or the other. The reason has changed over the years, but apparently I just have a talent for sticking out and looking special.
