Nick, all jobs have a grunt work aspect. Writing as a job is no exception. I'm a teacher and love my job. I don't love playground duty though, for instance. Nonetheless, it's part of the job so I do it when my turn comes up. If writing is just a fun hobby for so done, then they can totally pick and choose to only do the parts they like. But if they are aiming for a career, them IMHO that means accepting that the PR and promo aspects ofmit, tedious though the may be, are a necessary part of the equation.
