Tropes featured in her work:
- Comedy and Tragedy: Most of Willis's novels fall strongly into one or the other of these two classical genres. Doomsday Book, Lincoln's Dreams and Passage are tragedies; To Say Nothing of the Dog, Remake, Bellwether and Inside Job are comedies.
- Fix Fic: In Remake, one of the characters works in a place called "Happy Endings" which can "re-do" the endings to sad movies and make them happy.
- Mundane Horror: A Letter from Clearys follows a seemingly ordinary American family who are living in a small house in the mountains, while building a greenhouse there and waiting for a letter from their friends... However, for some reason, there is snow in the middle of June, and the main character has strange burns on her hands that are not going away no matter what. Eventually it's revealed that they inhabit a post-apocalyptic world, the family friends died in the nuclear explosion, and the protagonist likely exhibits the first signs of radiation poisoning.
- No Periods, Period: Played with in the Hugo-winning short story "Even the Queen", in which a technology has been invented that allows women to avoid them entirely.
- Yet Another Christmas Carol: "Adaptation" opens with a massive lampshade, with the protagonist going on at length about how many adaptations exist of A Christmas Carol. When he encounters the three Christmas Ghosts, he thinks he knows what's going on, but it turns out they have a different mission this time.
