What differentiates your writing from that of others? What is it that makes your craft more exciting than that of other writers.
Do you have a unique angle?
While it isn't always necessary to have a specific thing, like Koontz has Dogs, it is necessary to know what it is that distinguishes your writing from that of other writers.
Many times as part of our marketing we do a comparative analysis. We look at similar books. The purpose of this is to say that the READERS of those books will likely be among the people who would also enjoy your book.
However, you must always be aware of what it is that makes you unique. Build on it. Integrate it in your marketing. Make it a part of your website. Use it in giveaways.
Begin to determine what is unique about you, your writing and your stories.
