#WordWeavers 26. If you had to rewrite your WIP into another genre, what would you choose and why?
It’s likely I’d rewrite my ongoing urban fantasy series in the form of a fairy tale.
I’ve already partially done this as In one of my novels there’s a chapter where, due to chaos magic, my characters are transformed into fairy tale versions of themselves.
Vicky is, naturally, the hot witch.
Nathan, the loveable rogue.
Lucy, a stereotypical tavern wench.
Two other characters become, respectively, a bard who is compelled to sing his dialogue, whilst the other, completely out of character, transforms into a lecherous individual.
