Genres

right now i'm writing horror. I don't have a particular genre that I will stick with. I have all sorts of ideas.

What genre do you love best or write in? Why? (if you have a reason that is)

I'm finishing an action/adventure. I've written childrens stories. I'm working on romances. I expect to write a relationship book. And I may even try erotica.

Proabably sounds schitzo but, but I write what I like.

Nevertheless, your point is well taken, eventhough it's a funny one.

Thriller. I like lots of action, danger, and excitement, particularly the action-adventure kind--particularly with women characters. I always gravitated to books with action in them when I was growing up, and now I'm having a blast writing them.

Funny mystery if I'm writing in the first person.
Thriller if I write in third.

I've tried other things and they're just not me.

My short stories are literary, mystery, and one is sci-fi/social commentary. My novels are literary. I almost always write from a woman's perspective, though I don't consider my writing exactly "feminist".

I have written a romance, a comedy/mystery, and I'm currently working another mystery. I also have a children's book that I will get back to one day.

For me it's horror. Even though I grew up on Star Trek and James Bond, read and own thousands of comic books, and played Dungeons and Dragons for over twenty years there's something so interesting about horror, the bitter irony, desperate acts in violent situations, or just the thrill of the scare that sets my creative juices flowing.

Fantasy!! I just love fantasy, it's like my favorite genre. I also write romance, because I have a lot of interest in relationships. I've written mystery too, because I like shocks at the end. But it's mostly fantasy.

My Genre

For me right now it's fantasy. I have one novel titled The Calling that I'm presently working on and two on the back burners. I also have one true story and a mystery/drama novel on the back burners of another stove. lol Plus a children's screenplay titled The Stolen Tapestry. It has to do with the elements wind and rain a long with the lives of a garden insect community, spider, a fly, a lady bug ect. Also I'm presently writing a horror screenpay for production in India. But I think I enjoy fantasy the best.

Mainstream/Literary & Fantasy. I have a deep interest in "light science fiction", where the science-fiction element is a backdrop to character development etc. Such as "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep".. Unfortunately, the market for light science fiction is dwindling and many of the editors of the few paying sci-fi/fantasy mags left are far more interested in hard science fiction..and consider things such as DADoES to be more fantasy-oriented. Or.. at least these are the impressions I get, I could be wrong, but I do know that there is a definite trend toward hard science fiction in today's science fiction market... that is why I classify the science fiction that I write as fantasy.
