My point was that it wouldn't be necessary to change the post much. All of the information that I would have put in a post about the two fiction categories was already in the post about the non-fiction categories. I could change the wording, rearrange paragraphs, and things like that, but I wouldn't think that all of that was necessary just to change the focus from non-fiction categories to fiction categories.

I don't know if I made myself clearer just now, but I assure you that there was not even the thought of trying to circumvent the rules.
I read the following as a question about how you could change a post sufficiently so that it didn't fall under a putative limit on crossposts.

Rephrasing on my part: a crosspost is a crosspost, that is, if it's about the same deal, it's a crosspost. Changing the language doesn't affect that, but the rules don't forbid it anyway.
