#WritersCoffeeClub Nov. 23 - What's your niche?

Fiction: English-language Korean #HistoricalFiction and #folklore retellings based on close research of the eras involved, particularly premodern history and folklore with a focus on queer, disabled, and working-class characters who are underrepresented in the written #history. It's not a niche I occupy alone by any means, but I try to leverage my linguistic and cultural proficiency, plus largely self-taught research skills, to present an internal view of people as they might have lived and thought in the era, both alien and relatable.

#Poetry: I tend to write more classical formal poetry than is fashionable these days, and like to experiment with form and content like sonnets on labor issues or poems whose lines make visual shapes.
