Without spoilers, are there any genre conventions you wanted to upend or challenge with this book?
In my humble opinion, thrillers are all about discovering what makes people tick, dissecting it, and understanding the psychological puzzle that is the sack of meat called humans. I feel like it defies what a thriller can be while still maintaining the roots of the genre.
How does this book make a contribution to the genre? Having a debut book release in the age of COVID was no small feat, and yet Lindy at Black Spot was amazing. The biggest opportunity was meeting my team and my publisher. I still don’t know if I would call it fantasy or literary or horror or thriller as it is a little bit of all of them and yet not enough of one to answer with certainty. What was the biggest challenge this book presented? What about the biggest opportunity?Īside from actually writing it, the biggest challenge was marketing, as this book lands flatly in between at least three genres.
