“I’ve been trying to go linear for many a year. So far, I am 0 days clean.”
Such is my struggle. To me, writing cross-genre stories incorporates a robustness that linear genre fiction does not allow for. Dual storylines and shifting modalities force the reader to see the piece through multiple lenses: there’s the horror angle for some of it, the romance angle for others, and the mystery/suspense angle for yet more. I love it—and many readers do too.
