When scientist Carole Stivers began writing science fiction, she dreamed of readers she’d never met, enjoying and discussing her work. But she also dreamed of acceptance in “literary circles.” She secured an agent unfamiliar with sci-fi who saw cross-over potential for her debut novel, The Mother Code. What happened next was a crash course in the impact of genre classification on book marketing.
Carole will tell you what she wished she had known before embarking on the ever-shifting seas of literary genre, and offer tips on how you might keep your own head above water when “writing outside the lines.”
