On this episode we dive deep into the importance of understanding which genre a story falls into and why we need to be aware of this while writing our books. Leslie discusses the guide bookstores use to determine where to shelve a book and how that affected her Young Adult novel. Hananya shares the conventions of Romance and how her story fits into that genre. While Shameem considers the challenges of writing a Contemporary story with strong female characters that she wants to appeal to both genders. Join us as we take another step toward our publishing dreams in this podcast about writing and friendship. We are the Three Writing Amigas!
