When we’re first learning to write fiction, most of us know broadly what genre we’re targeting. You might tell people you're working on a Fantasy, or Thriller, or Romance novel. That's a great starting point, but it's not specific enough once you're trying to publish and market that book.
There’s nuance to the niche sub-genres on the major ebook retailers. In this episode, we're giving you our best tips to research your specific sub-genre so you can give readers exactly what they want.
Tip #1: Leverage the Amazon genre tree
Tip #2: Understand the popular tropes
Tip #3: Read books in your genre that are comparable to your own. Read a lot of them.
Bonus Tip #4: Listen in to find out!
