While writing, do you avoid or binge similar material?
There isn't similar material. If there was, I wouldn't see a point in making more of it.
It depends what you mean by similar tho. Genre and tropes is not how I think about what I'm trying to do; it's more about core idea and setting, so that's how I think about similarity.
It's also why I can't describe my books by comparisons like "Big Fish meets Foucault's Pendulum but YA" — at least, not usefully, as you can see.
