If I had categories on my website for Fiction, Poetry, Non-fiction, Commentary, and Blog and I wrote a post reviewing a book of fiction, where would you expect to find that review post?
I guess the responses show my categories are less than clear, or rather that the categories don't reflect my intentions very clearly 😅 At least the category I had in mind is the frontrunner? I knew from the first this structure wasn't exactly a model of clarity, fortunately the site revamp isn't urgent so it's back to the drawing board I guess...
@ljwrites i think it really depends on the context the categories are used in — like if a blog is primarily a review blog then i’d assume fiction / non-fiction / commentary were the categories of what the blog was reviewing (and blog was for misc non-review stuff) but if this was someone i knew to write and publish their own fiction regularly, i’d expect that category to be reserved for actual works of fiction
@Satsuma That makes perfect sense! Categories are not absolute but rather contextual. I guess I can't expect the structure to be clear to everyone out of context.
@ljwrites since i know you i’d assumed the latter context, but people voting based on this getting boosted into their feeds probably don’t tbf
