So I'm just wondering about this:
How much did you write - either in months/years or number of projects/ words/whatever - before you had a pretty good sense of what types of stories you prefer to write (genre, subgenre, YA vs. adult, etc.) and a pretty good sense of your strengths as a writer, your target audience, in a word, your 'niche.'
Or maybe most of you are still searching for this, like me. Or maybe you have no desire to whittle your vision into a specific path, and that's fine, too. But if you have, I'd like to hear a little about your journey, especially how much time or effort it took. Thanks.
