If you could write romance novels and make money, would you do

Sure, as long as I could use a pseudonym

sure.

Of course, there's a misperception that romance writers are just hacks, and anyone could do it.

If you believe that, try writing a romance novel yourself. You'll probably find it impossible.

That's because even though they're shitty books, it actually does take a special talent to write them, and the people who do so don't actually think of themselves as hacks, and they genuinely believe in the genre. That may make them morons, but they're genuine at least.

This, desu. I can have fun writing shitty romances. I'll write my own works under a different name as passion products.

This guy knows it, I tried writing one to see if I could make some money out of it and it turns out to be fucking hard to do. You have to go into a mindset that most people can't. I feel its specially hard for men since you have to appeal to the most primal needs of women and then you have to go one step ahead and give them something they didn't even know they wanted.

The top selling authors of all time on amazon, have a bunch of hack romance authors, right alongside tolkien, king, are these romance cunts no ones ever heard about writing about 'bad boy alpha males'. I could not believe my eyes when I saw that.
