Genre

Genre as a marketing category!
Publishers and editors do not think about genre the same way authors do. Here's an explanation.



... Now I write an ode to spinach:

spinach,
you
are green
and
i wish i had more
of you than
what I ate
(yum yum yum)
at five in the morning,
dawn
creeping
up
you are
(my sunshine and)
the perfect delivery method
for salt and
garlic.

Yes, that does make more sense. Thank you!

One more question. Say you write a fantasy with vampires, werewolves, faires etc., and want to eventually write more novels set in that world. Then for a different book, you want to write a paranormal romance. Does it become a problem to use the same world - same rules etc for your supernatural creatures - in a different genre?
