Listen Later


Today we talk about the nitty gritty of genres and how to cross them. Whether you want to write paranormal romance or your fantasy novel has an unexpected dash of horror, you may find that one genre is not enough to contain your story. Sarah Reichert joins Bonnie and Miranda to discuss the pros and cons of crossing genres: everything from the importance of choosing a genre to the importance of understanding tropes for your genres to the potential difficulties of marketing a cross-genre novel.
