New Theme for the New Year!

For the month of January, Cuppa Caff's theme will be something that's given me quite a bit of fodder to chew on, personally: genres.

Writers always need to know what genre a certain piece of their fiction is. It may be a mix, but there's surely one (or two) can be the primary pegs in any work. I'll be defining the genres, like romance and mystery, with some input as to what formulas or components these genres tend to contain.

Now, genre definitions do vary according to the definer—most noticeably with the sci-fi and fantasy genres—so bear that in mind when reading. I'll also be covering some literary genres that might help some of us figure out what they're writing.

Enjoy!
