Say WHY you love and write your specific genre

[SeraphiaMili]

My genre focus : Royal Satire - psychological intrigue - espionage

Why I love writing it :
I enjoy stories where power isn’t decided by strength or romance, but by strategy, social pressure, and emotional manipulation. Royal courts look glamorous on the surface.. but underneath, everyone is pretending, calculating, hiding motives. I love exploring how characters survive in that environment, epecially when they have outsmart systems that are bigger than themselves.

I’m currently developing a comic project titled Hidden Crown.. still in early production, but this genre is where my heart is

I don´t have one specific genre I like. I am from the TV generation and grew up on anime. Anime with a lot of action, fast paced, with characters that are not exactly black or white - meaning not just good or evil, no real "heroes", but survival stories with mystery or/and sci-fi elements. Anti-heroes that have no problem getting their hands dirty while cracking a sarcastic smile. A lot of the modern animated shows lack the old school grit and darker tone and lack creativity as such and thanks to that some turn into dull commertial garbage. There are exceptions like Arcane or Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, but this style is really getting rare. And since I miss this genre, I´ve decited to try to create something that couold fit this category. And so the Black Fang was born...

I really enjoy drama and action-fantasy

I don't know if it comes with the territory, but I've been really hyped up when stuff hits the fan in any form of media. It feels like the stakes are high and present. I've also been an avid battle-shonen guy, the Dragon Ball, Bleach and AOT fan is always thrilled when something new pops up.

Oooh that's a really fun genre!

I like fantasy romance particularly in the contemporary setting because if it's just romance but no magic/paranormal elements, the premise really has to be strong for me. Haha! And although it's relatively new, I like cozy fantasy, too.

I also like traditional mystery as well as cozy mysteries where the protagonist has a certain profession like your everyday men and they go out there solving murder mysteries.

I think my strength is comedy, although I love to do thoughtful dramas. So I like to combine the two because I think I would feel a little burnt out and lacking in purpose just doing a pure comedy and if I did a pure drama, it might feel too stale. I also think it’s very rare in professional work to see the two combined really well so I like to aspire to do so.

As for the Nadezhda manga, I simply love it because I feel a connection with the characters and the story's world. Regarding the novel "My Beautiful Illusions," honestly, I don't like the BL genre; in fact, I absolutely hate it. However, I wrote it as a form of psychological analysis, nothing more.

Why don't I see any historical romance or danmei fans
Anyway I write almost on any genre but my strength lies in danmei and historical romance, and fantasy. I am a funny person irl but adopting it to my book is a little difficult so even though I love comedy I can't seem to write it

If I do write comedy Im just gonna make some balls joke and call it elite ball knowledge. Please excuse me here.

Sooo any danmei fans?? wyaaa

I'm writing a revenge, redemption story that takes place in a futuristic fantasy world. A Mixture of both magic and technology.

Series like Vinland Saga made me love the Revenge subplots with a bigger picture in mind. Such as the transformation of someone into something far better than they thought they could be. I've always loved futuristic settings mixed with an element of spiritual fantasy. One of main cores being something like Star Wars. The whole idea of planetary travel and abilities like "the Force" are things I've come to like very much. Especially since they become plot devices deeply rooted and important to the story itself. Then there's also Cyberpunk and Bladerunner 2049, which made me like the futuristic aesthetic even further.

What is "My beautiful illusions" about?
And why do you hate the BL genre?

[eunwei]

why do you hate BL? is there any BL you've read that ruined the genre for you?

[ShidoDraws]

I like writing fantasy, or at least stories with fantastical elements. And I've written some stories that aren't fantasy, I just never liked the feeling of being limited to realistic standards. I think the only time I'll ever write something that's not fantasy would be when I write an autobiography. It might be soon, it might be well beyond my 20s or 30s, or it might not happen. You can't predict when death will come.

I love the aspect of worldbuilding in stories, so I really like fantasy and science fiction (though I’m very picky with both, they can’t be too generic and for sci-fi, I prefer chemistry- or biology-based rather than astrophysics-based). I do have some stories from both of these genres but it’s not what I’m currently working on.
As for my current comic, Morning Glory, it’s a historical romance. Thing is, I usually don’t like the romance genre; I find it both too boring and too emotionally draining at the same time. But surprisingly, I find historical romance tolerable (maybe because there’s usually an action angle to it?), so that’s what I write. And it even allows me to do my fair share of worldbuilding, since specific organizations in my comic are fictional and I can make up the rules for them almost from scratch.

I love writing action and sci-fi, something about when the hero is almost beaten by the villain, you hear the Music Power-up in the background, cheering your hero before he or she gets their second wind and the MUSIC BLASTS!!! this is when the tides turn backing the hero against the villain and you have that "YEAH!!!! LET'S GO!!!!" It's kind of fun to see the bad guy gets his comeuppance from the hero, get his receipt back for being a jerk.

When Luffy lands a fist onto a bad guy's face, it feels cathartic!! BAM!!!

I have always loved high dark fantasy as well as science fiction

the ability to create new worlds and stories has always been a my main drive for these genres and as such I hope to create a new arc in the story telling world not just for web novels but for rpg gaming as well hoping to push the narrative concept more and more

[Chibicat16]

I love science fiction and fantasy put together.
because even though they can be made separate they are good together.

I grew up being forced to watch wholesome Hallmark movies with my mom, but my real passion was always horror and paranormal stuff, so I ended up blending the two in my writing. Wholesome family cuteness with gory horror and magical elements. It's a odd mix, but it's hella fun to write!
