picking a label for your book

Hello all! Today I will be talking about picking a label for your book.

Why have labels? Well they make two kinds of distinctions. The first one is the genre of the book. Secondly it defines your target audience.

Now there are different types of genres to choose from.

- romance
- thriller
- mystery / crime
- science fiction
- fantasy
- horror
- general/ literary
- inspirational
- children
- young adult
- adult

There must be one primary category for your book. You can mix categories as well, but one category must remain dominant.

Why have a dominant category? Well the dominant category determines where the book store or library chooses to shelf your book.
