I propose a new genre of fiction!

Now that I'm posting, I'm on a roll, and I'm creating my third post in the last half hour. Or ten minutes. Whatever.

I'm struggling with The Age Problem(™). Basically, one of the novels I'm currently working on is about college students. The problem with this, is that it's the particularly nasty age where the characters I'm writing about are older than teenagers, but since readers (particularly teenagers) generally read up, my readers would probably be in their late teens. The question, really, is do I try and publish as Young Adult, or Adult Fiction? It's a tough call, really. I think that my characters, still being fairly young, are easily related to by teenagers. The problem is that they aren't teenagers.

Why can't they just have a "College Age Fiction" genre?
