Should you read your own genre? Writing what you want to read is excellent advice, but if you're not reading in the genre, why write it? When authors say the wrote what they wanted to read, it's normally because they saw problems with other books in that genre, and that's only possible by being well-read, and being part of the audience you hope to appeal to. True, you probably shouldn't write what you think readers want to hear, but it's not really what I was trying to suggest. |

Submitting a novel for publication: do editors still expect Courier font? Can't say I've had that problem. The sorts of fonts that you're likely to use for a submission should handle it just fine. Editors like Word handle the correct characters perfectly fine, too (at least in my experience with fonts like Times New Roman, Bookman Old Style etc.). |
