Writing a single book is already taxing enough, but writing multiple? Author Everett Wair Sr. takes his pen to great heights by crafting multiple worlds in different genres.
How many books of the same genre can you read until reaching a tedium point?
Some would be three, perhaps, ten; others limitless. The thing is, readers’ preferences will always be subjective. How many books they can endure and enjoy under the same genre depends on their preference and interest. But the authors writing these books follow a different journey.
Authors vs. Genres: The Ratio of One to Many
While most authors focus on a single genre, some put limitations behind them and dabble into multiple. In one book, they’re breaking readers’ hearts with tearjerkers; in the next, they throw the funniest slapstick humor. Some safely experiment across genres, dabbling into closely related narratives and treading within closely familiar territories. But others try an extensive enough range that readers might question whether the same author wrote both books.
From a marketing perspective, this might be a nightmare for building a stable reputation.
An author publishing multiple genres equates to a scattered and unsteady following, with readers likely to abandon ship once their preferences aren’t met. However, writing in various genres might be a true dream for some authors. It’s scratching an itch in their brains and scratching it well. Writing in multiple genres means unleashing and tapping into their potential by experimenting with styles and sounds they’ve yet to master. It’s treading in uncharted waters, bravely and openly.
Writing in multiple genres equals courage. And a figure perfectly embodying this bravery is Everett Wair Sr.
About Everett Wair Sr. The Man Behind Multiple Masterpiece
Everett Wair was born in St. Louis MO and now lives in California. He might be typecast as a man of adventure and thrill. However, he’s more suitable to be regarded under the light of tranquility and literature. As a retired railroad worker, Everett Wair Sr. spends most of his time writing and crafting worlds beyond reality. Passionate in his craft, he likens his writings to movies with the characters he breathes vivid and vibrant lives. This is why he has successfully published multiple under his name.
Everett Wair Sr. is nothing short of creative and imaginative. He also doesn’t shy away from experimenting and trying out new things. Hence, throughout his spare time, he has produced distinct and divergent pieces of literary masterpieces. So far, he has four published materials, each taking a different skin, conveying a different narrative tone, and with impressive themes to tackle.
Playing a Dangerous Game
The first piece Everett crafted takes on a criminal mystery genre with a tinge of action and angst. It follows a Chicago City employee falsely accused of sexual harassment and is now seeking justice for his name and reputation. With a task so consequential, he might end up shorthanded chasing after his accusers alone. He’s joined with another employee, his friend, throughout his rollercoaster journey.
Graveyard Society
From a criminal mystery keynote, Everett Wair Sr. follows his first publication with an adult comedy following a young gravedigger murdered by his neighbor. His soul becomes a restless ghost as he returns to the real world before transitioning to his final rest. Impressive is an understatement in defining Everett’s competency as an author, evidenced by his flair in shifting from mystery to comedy.
Graveyard Society Eve
After the success of Graveyard Society, Everett follows the story up with Graveyard Society Eve, a book that can be deemed a second installation of the series. It’s still an adult comedy, but this time, it follows a Chicago woman who encounters an unfortunate experience one winter night. Graveyard Society Eve tackles the dark humor found in the afterlife as the women’s soul rises and transitions to the afterlife.
Something About Them Wairs
Set in Lancaster, California, Something About Them Wairs follows three prominent citizens and the uncovering of the secrets they’ve firmly kept buried away from the public. The story is a spine-chilling mystery-thriller surrounding the children of Wairs and the terrors in Lancaster.
Overall, Everett Wair Sr. has constantly shown his grasp of writing different genres. Throughout the four, and hopefully more, books under his name, Everett has exhibited his prowess in handling and crafting distinct narratives, worlds, and characters that suit the different genres he’s dabbling into.
