Story genres - favorite and difficult ones

Hey guys!

There are a lot of genres in which you can write your story. I wonder if you have your favorite one? Oh and also what is most difficult for you to write?
For me, it has to be a comedy or a mystery story. Thinking of the interesting, funny or scary and involving plot is hard and takes a lot of time.
What do you think about that? :smile:

My favorite genre to write in is drama. :smirk:

A difficult genre to write in is romance. :sleeping:
Why is difficult? Eh I donā€™t knowā€¦ Iā€™m not big of romance, so trying to channel it in writing seems a bit difficult. Honestly itā€™s easier to write a break up then to write about a relationship :woman_shrugging:t4::joy:

Hahaha! Thatā€™s so true! I can think of lots of ideas for the breakup but finding a new and fresh romance plot is truly difficult :thinking:

Oh my!
In my case, my whole bookshelf is filled with crime stories and psychological thrillers.
Do you remember the title of the book you read as a child?

Easiest to write: Comedy
Hardest to write: Thriller and Romance (ironic since our first story was in the missed connections contest :stuck_out_tongue: )

I didnā€™t know the huge potential in Episode Thriller until I read The Game by amberj ompff

My favourite to write are thriller and mystery.

The hardest for me are comedy (Iā€™m not funny) and romance (everything turns out so cringeworthy).

My favorite one to write is action. I only write an action story! I think in two weeks I will publish!.

The hardest one for me is:

  • Comedy - there is a thin line between funny and stupid.
  • Romance - it is so easy to make this kind of story too sweetā€¦ And yeah, Iā€™m not a romantic person at all.

But when it is about readingā€¦ I love almost all, but my favorites stories are fantasy ones and action ones!
