Okay, if you had to define the difference between urban fantasy and paranormal romance, how would you go about doing that?

I'm actually more stumped by this question that I expected to be.

IMO, the world is one of the characters in a UF story. It may be a fairly minor character, but it is one nevertheless.

Verrrrrry interesting point. I wonder, how does one go about making the world a character in a story, and how do you know (as a reader) if that's being done?
