I write across genres so I see them, more often, as complementary instead of separated by boundaries.

My oldest sister was an actress living in NYC by the time I was ten, and desperately wanted to be the one in charge of the words.

A good novel doesn't just transcend the boundaries of its target market - it knows nothing about target markets.
