This has always been kind of a weak argument to me. ALL jobs have drudge parts.

I am a great teacher, but I dislike playground duty, for instance. I'd rather be teaching. And yet, it's part of the job so when my turn comes up, I do it. To say you prefer the writing part is totally fair, but to say that it seems 'wrong' to do anything but purely write is, to me, disingenuous. The marketing is the drudge work. Every career has it.
