DISCUSSION 🎙️ Black/Afam Romance vs. Urban Romance

Post image

For quite some time, I’ve labeled two of my books as Black/Afam Romance, because they feature Black FMCs and they’re written by a Black woman. Now I’m wondering whether Black/Afam Romance is just another way to say Urban Romance (e.g., Quan Millz, Zane).

So which is it? Is Black Romance another term for Urban Romance, or is it a descriptor for the characters/author?

Yes totally different genres and I totally respect it. However ,isn’t Quan Mills satire? Totally different genre altogether right?
