How to Keep Your Writing Different
Stephanie Edwards
Author of The Haunting on Palm Court
When I set out to write the novel, I intended to write a
women’s fiction with a little bit of romance, but, to my surprise, the spirits
found their way into the story. For the longest time, I refused to label my
book as a specific genre because I wanted the story to be unique, and I didn’t
want to be pigeon-holed into following a specific set of industry norms. I like
reading genre-bending novels, and I enjoyed writing one.
I’m working on the sequel, The Return to Palm Court, which
follows the point of view of Brittany, the youngest sister of the main
character of the first book, Blake. Once again, I’m looking for ways to write
outside of the box and not conform to what other authors have done or what’s on
trend. Brittany’s POV and experience is certainly different from Blake’s, but I
hope readers will enjoy the continuation of the Nelson family’s story on Palm
Court.
I’ve always thrived while being creative, and I push myself to
learn and improve my craft every day. In any profession, you have to be willing
to accept feedback and know when to follow your gut instincts. As an author or
any sort of creator, sometimes, taking a risk is when you have the biggest
payoff. If you’re thinking about writing a story, don’t be afraid to be
different. You might just find a niche where you belong.
