Samantha Joyce became an author because she much preferred writing about other people instead of herself. Then she was told she needed to write an author bio for her books and website, and her plan was thwarted. She’s the author of two adult romance books: Flirting with Fame and Dealing in Deception. She lives in Toronto, Ontario Canada, and when she is not writing, she’s baking pretty cakes or beading jewelry or sitting in the audience at many Broadway musicals. Samantha’s a hopeless romantic who loves writing about love. Her favorite thing in the world is making people laugh, so if you chuckle at least once while reading her books, this bio writing thing was worth it.

I’ve definitely had my share of “bad timing” books, where by the time I’m done, the industry is overwhelmed with that particular genre.
My best advice is to stop thinking about the market and the industry and write for yourself. When you write something you’re passionate about, it shows. And timing in this industry doesn’t always mean a lot. Publishing is cyclical. If something isn’t popular now, it probably will be again. So by the time you’re done, it could be exactly what someone is looking for!
I also like to think my writing gets stronger with every book I write. So think of writing a new book as getting better at what you love. The more you do it, the better you’ll get! But if you stop yourself from writing out of fear or frustration about whether or not it will be published, you lose out on honing your skills.
This is a tough industry, yes, but it’s not impossible to get into. It takes a lot of hard work, a lot of writing things that may not get published, and a lot of faith in yourself.
So turn off the part of you that is worried about what the industry holds and go let yourself enjoy writing. Good luck! (less)
