Alright, I've put together some story genres.

Humor

Action

Suspense

Angst

Supernatural

Romance

Poetry

Drama

Adventure

Mystery

Tragedy

Hurt/comfort

Sci-Fi

Fantasy

 

Anything I should add? Anything that should be removed?

 

These genres, for the record, are going to be used in the upcoming SS awards.

I don't think 'Angst' and 'Hurt/Comfort' are needed, in my humble opinion. The others are fine, though; and, offhand, I can't think of any other categories you should add.

Sorry, angst stays. IMO, it is a commonly used genre.

 

And there's the fact that probably half of my stories are in that category. :P

Humor is a bit redundant with the Comedies Forum :shrugs:

 

Also, what would you call a story embellishing upon pre-established events, characters, or locations? Canon Fiction?

I wouldn't call it anything frankly.

 

And ftr, stories can be humorous without being comedies. I've seen my share of them. ;)

^ Yeah, I get that, but Humor alone qualifies it as a comedy, and such a story would almost always fall under another genre.

 

Of course, I don't know how you will be categorizing entries, so this may be completely invalid.
