Romance Writers Weekly ~ Sub-genres ~ #LoveChatWrite



 This week, on the Romance Writers Weekly blog hop, we're asked, "What sub-genres have you written in? Any particular challenges?"

As far as the first part...what sub-genres haven't I written in? I've written Paranormal Romance, Paranormal Romantic Suspense, Contemporary Romance, Erotic Romance, Historical Fantasy Romance, Steampunk Romance, Steampunk-adjacent, Alternate History Romance, Sci-Fi Futuristic Romance, Romantic Comedy, Small-Town Romance, Urban Fantasy Romance, Urban Fantasy-slash-Paranormal fiction that's (strictly speaking) NOT romance, although my publishers seem slow to get that message, Romantic Parodies, Vampire Romance, Shifter Romance, Angel Romance, Sapphic Sword and Sorcery Romance and also F/F, M/M and M/M/F...although, strictly speaking, those aren't actually sub-genres...and everything from NA to Seasoned Romance. And challenging? Oh, honey. It's all challenges.

Seriously though, the biggest problem I have is branding myself--due to all the aforementioned sub-genres. But hey, it keeps life interesting.


Now, hop on over to Brenda Margriet's page and learn what sub-genres she writes in. And don't forget to check out her book, When Time Falls Still




Justice Cooper abandoned his professional hockey career to put family first. Now divorced with a young son, he has no time to indulge the chemistry sparking with a brainy and beautiful academic. Especially with a vicious stalker wreaking havoc on his campus.

Professor Charlotte Girardet is focused on one thing—earning tenure at a prestigious university. She’ll do anything to keep her career on track, which includes ignoring her unwanted attraction to the rough and rugged security guard who insists on protecting her.

Struggling to balance her ambitions and a growing passion, Charlotte trusts Justice with her deepest secret, and discovers she’s not the only one haunted by the past. But their uncertain future becomes even more precarious when the assailant strikes much too close to home.
