Notas del episodio
On this episode we will discuss Genre Expectations. When you decide to write a story, knowing what Genre you are writing is important, because readers expect certain things from that genre. Whatever emotion that genre invokes in a reader, the author has to do their best to write toward what that feeling or anticipation that the reader expects from that topic. You don't want to throw a tragedy in the middle of a comedy where there isn't an uplifting reminder to laugh by the end (Patch Adams), nor do you want to mix genres without taking the time to figure out how they would even work in the first place, where do they match, how do they overlap? And, how do you market to readers if you have broken Genre Expectation? These are the things to consider when writing your story; and if you want to break them all? Bless your heart, and good luck.
