@imwritehere1920 This is a really good question and I don’t have a good answer. I don’t really understand YA at the moment, and I don’t know if my impressions of the genre over the past ten years are valid any more
Hmm, yeah I’ve noticed that sometimes it seem to be a broad and kinda vague term.
it feels to me like unless I’m targeting specifically mature adults who want something like old school scifi and fantasy (and to my knowledge this isn’t a very large paying audience), the majority of people who will buy indie fiction are looking for YA.
Ah, is old school sci-fi and fantasy your favorite genre to write in?
