What Genre Do You Write?

Writing is about finding yourself. You don’t write because of the trend. You write what you know and what you care about. I started writing poetry and essays but never realized I could write a whole book. I then ventured into children’s books, but felt that there was something missing and I knew I had a higher calling. Being a hopeless romantic who was drawn to women’s issues was close to my heart. Writing novels involving love and women came natural to me, which is why I chose to write Romance and Women’s fiction. What is your favorite genre?

  1. I love to read all genres, but can't write in all them:) I love writing cozy mystery and women's fiction. Since I'm self-published, I sometimes cross the two genres and it seems to be working!

  2. I started out writing romance, then went to mystery where I was published. I still write mystery, but I'm crossing genres with my upcoming title about a time-travling witch. It's urban fantasy, YA, mystery, chic lit all rolled into one, according to my editor.
