Write in the genre that fits your message and feels natural to you — but also consider what your ideal readers enjoy.
If you’re writing to establish authority (e.g., as a coach or entrepreneur), non-fiction works well. If you love storytelling, explore fiction, poetry, or memoir.
Research your genre before you start:
- What covers look like
- How long books typically are
- How readers talk about them in reviews
Publishing isn’t just about self-expression — it’s about connection. Know your genre, then own it.
