Choosing Primary Content and External Genre for a Coming of Age Story
When writing a coming of age story, it is essential to choose a primary content genre and an external genre. The primary content genre focuses on the internal changes of the characters, often related to their worldview. In contrast, the external genre determines the events and conflicts in the story, such as romance, action, or performance genres. Selecting these genres helps map out the plot and create the necessary conflicts that drive character development.
