I love this discussion.

Well different people that read my work seem to often think its a different genre, as weird as that sounds. I've been told anything from science fiction, fantasy, romance, contemporary, literary, or even magic realism.

With one work, that ended up getting me on a LitReads list on Wattpad.  I guess that's the nature of writing about Mistaken Necrophiliacs that want to bring their serial killer girlfriend back from the dead, and ascend into "electronic heaven."

I don't think I lost that cross-genre aesthetic, but my cross-genre sounds less and less cross-genre and more ... slipstream. Just slightly in the realm of science fiction and fantasy.

It's less Fairies with machine guns, and more Computer Programmers with talking cats lately.
