Genres

Perhaps a few more genres for authors to post their work under? Such as Poetry, Action, Adventure, and Non-Fiction. Fan-Fiction too, maybe, as there are a number of fanfiction writers. Also, subgenres would be a nice thing to have. When more work starts getting posted, it's going to be incredibly difficult and rather taxing to look for a story one might enjoy. So, maybe one to two subgenres to make searches more specific? For example, if I wanted to read a sci-fi story that also had a horror aspect, I could click the main Science Fiction genre tab, and then there could be options to make the search more specific so I could see what stories were Sci-Fi horrors.

  • Interesting. I like the subgenre idea.

  • Yes, this needs to be done as there are a lot of fanifc writers on the web such as myself.

  • I would also suggest a few genres, or sub genres such as 'Drama', 'Angst', and 'Tragedy'. When I went to label one of my stories, I didn't see anywhere it could fit other than general and it's somewhat angsty.

  • Also, a supernatural genre would be nice. I notice a lot of modern, urban stories with the only fantasy elements being of a supernatural kind. Be a nice thing to lessen the big lump of fantasy stories.

  • So a few more genre's have been added: Action, Adventure, Fan Fiction, Drama, Tragedy and Supernatural. Multi-genre labeling is being thought out as well.

  • Has the multi genre feature been added yet? While my story fits in the Adventure genre, it still isn't exactly Adventure. Its also a combination of Non-Fiction and Supernatural.
