I'm having an issue with classification. (Sort of like how this really doesn't have anything to do with starbucks cobbler (never heard of it) or blueberry lattes (ick).)
So: Classification. My novel is young adult, and I've been marketing it as fantasy, but I'm reconsidering.
Here's the thing: the tale takes place in another world, one much like England in the middle ages or something. So definately fantasical in that sense, but there are no magical creatures; nor is there magic. Fantasy, or no?
I think I've mixed something up... Any suggestions?
And by the way, the other day I paid 2.79 for a freaking mouthful of coffee at starbucks - a short latte, and it emptied my wallet! And the same week, I reflected on making blueberry cobbler. I never did of course; some things never dare to get in the way of writing.
