To be frank, I can seldom understand any sort of criteria anymore. Ghost stories are published in sci-fi journals, alien tales in horror 'zines. I think, ultimately, the criteria is going to have to be whether or not one writes an entertaining, provocative or though-inducing piece of speculative fiction.
As a reader of all genres, believe me, you are aleady an effective writer of SF. And horror. And fantasy. Probably slipstream, too, but that one I am especially hazy on.
You're an effective writer. Period.
