>>24794063Literacy rates aren't plummeting and romantasy doing well is just a trend, like cozy mysteries or erotica or doorstopper fantasyif you don't want to follow a trend than don't lol. it's not hard. a trend means it's doing better than average or expected, it doesn't mean it's the only way to be successful. in fact there are plenty of opportunities during a trend to capture the people tired of it, or to get on board a new trend that fits more what you're hoping to do.just do what you're good at. the advice has been the same since time immemorial.
>>24794452This is the only good advice. You got to treat it like a business idea. It doesn't mean you have to sell out and appeal to the masses, you just need an idea of what market you want to appeal to and how to capitalise on it.
