Already wrote it... Now I am having trouble ...Oops! Already wrote it... Now I am having trouble knowing where it fits. <br /><br />I never actually intended to write a book, which is why I did not pick a genre first. <br /><br />Now that I have written it, my manuscript fits multiple places. It is epic or high fantasy, but also has some sci fi elements, and light romance. I have read that when you cross certain genres, it is called speculative fiction. <br /><br />Would that work in this scenerio? <br /><br />For instance, I read the Harry Potter books are speculative because of all the genres in them, but it is also YA, and epic. Is there a source that best describes this in your opinion?<br /><br />Thank you so much!Alaina Y. Ewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11386909217361748183noreply@blogger.com
