Best of the Best



I've mentioned before I'm working on my query letter.  I've sent it through the wringer a few times, tweak it when and where necessary, you know the drill.  One problem I've encountered is finding the appropriate genre or sub category to shove my manuscript into.  I was labelling it dystopian since some sites say anything involving life after an apocalypse falls into that category, but I've decided to go out on a ledge and just let it be what it is--post apocalyptic young adult.  I've now seen that listed as a sub genre so I'm going with it, I guess that was the confirmation I needed.   If you've found yourself in a similar spot, maybe one of the following links will help clear it up for you as well :)

    Mark, Cassie, and Kelley--I think we all must be very close to the same point in writing :) I'm glad they can help, they've certainly helped me!

    Thanks for the links! I am in a quandry about what exactly my novel is... I have been calling it contemporary fantasy, because urban fantasy seems related to vampires and werewolves in an urban setting. Maybe these will help clear it for me!

    I hope these links help Lara. I think bits of mine fall into a category, then other parts disqualify it, it's confusing and a bit frustrating. I know what you're going through :)
