A Goodreads user asked Ute Carbone:

Who is the difficult genre in literature? Best regards: A. Tomov – junior

Ute Carbone I don't think there is one more difficult than the another, Alexander. I've written novels that are funny, novels that are dramatic, and novels that are historical along with a bunch of short stories and poems. I can tell you that each thing I write comes with it's own set of challenges. Even in the same genre, no two projects are the same.
There are, of course, some things we are better at than others. I love writing dialog, and I love the rhythm of language. I'm a terrible speller and am often stymied by silly things, unsure of whether or not to use a comma and so forth. I tend to repeat words. All of this is fixable--and why a good editor is invaluable.
