SHOW NOTES: What genre is your book? It sounds like a simple question… until your book refuses to fit neatly into one box. In this episode, I explore what genres actually do, the difference between genre and audience, why genre matters when choosing BISAC categories and keywords, and what happens when your stories cross genre lines. I also tackle a question I’m confronting in my own writing journey: Should authors write to market and stay in one recognizable genre—or let each story decide what it wants to become? Because genre can help readers find your book. But does it have to...

SHOW NOTES: You launched your book! Congratulations! And apparently… everyone has been waiting for this moment so they can help you. Podcast bookings. Book clubs. Trailers. Marketing packages. Friendly messages from fellow authors who—four DMs later—just happen to know someone who can promote your book. Some of that interest is genuine. Some of it is simply sales wearing a friendly face. In this episode, I share some of the offers that started appearing after I launched Veiled Halos—including a podcast pitch for the ballerina book I never wrote—and what I’ve learned about...

Season 17, Episode 4
Hosts: Mike Forman and Chris Doelle
Week 1 Reviews & Analysis
• Cuero vs. Yoakum: Cuero won a hard-fought game despite committing 3–4 turnovers and missing two fourth-down attempts. Shiner-transfer Jarvis Williams shined for Cuero with an 80-yard touchdown catch on the first play and a kickoff return TD. Day Bonner added ~12 receptions and a touchdown. Yoakum showed strong promise for Region 4 contention despite an inexperienced offensive line.
• Ganado 49, Tidehaven 6: The scoreboard suggested a blowout, but Tidehaven stayed competitive until late. Ganado looked remarkably sharp, particularly on special teams. A young, physically large Tidehaven squad struggled with critical dropped passes and turnovers.
• Rockport-Fulton 28, Goliad 0: Rockport-Fulton’s wing-T/slot-T offense delivered a surprising shutout victory.
• George West 40, Refugio 0: Refugio was held under 100 offensive yards in a shocking shutout loss. Refugio played without injured starting quarterback Matthew Perez and is currently battling a severe lack of roster depth.
• Shiner vs. Industrial: Shiner dominated and "thrashed" Industrial, setting up an anticipated regular-season collision with Ganado.
• Bloomington vs. Woodsboro: Bloomington logged an impressive high-scoring win.
Week 2 Outlook & Matchups
• Cuero at La Vernia: A physical road test for Cuero's explosive offense against a strong, run-heavy La Vernia slot-T team.
• Victoria East vs. Victoria West ("Crossroads Clash" / "Battle of the Boot"): West is favored on paper, but the emotional energy of this classic local rivalry is expected to bring out the best in both healthy squads.
• Boling at Ganado: Mike Forman will cover this game live. Boling’s wing-T offense presents a highly physical matchup challenge for Ganado's defense.
• Edna at East Bernard: East Bernard enters the game reeling from a local community tragedy where a young girl was killed in an accident, yet they remain highly competitive after defeating Sweeney.
• Mexico City at Calhoun: A unique international matchup set up by Calhoun head coach Stephen Herzer via his past Cal Allen connections.
• Flatonia at Louise: A test for Louise under high-energy, strength-focused head coach Cameron Ma.
