Topic: Genre Timing | |
---|---|
Vampires and werewolves are hot right now. Politics and moral questions are hitting the fan. Violence among rich people has become a cheap, dime store and soap opera subject.
How do you decide when to release a certain novel? Would you rather be an opportunist and risk being swallowed up in a torrent of hype or put out something more controversial? ...Or just do it as it comes and let the chips fall where they may? |

I don't think it really matters all that much. If people like what you write, they'll buy it.
True readers don't really care what the " hot topics " of the day are. They read what they think is good. Plain and simple. |
