Ah. So all of those sci-fi writers should stop writing sci-fi and start writing celebrity tell-alls, because they make more money?

Don't forget, writers specialize because they tend to excel in certain genres more than others. Though I wish I was the sort of writer who could write in any genre, I'm not. I write in the genre I am best at, and will therefore make the most money. If I can't make money writing SF, or some other science or technology subject, I might as well just stop writing... because my celebrity tell-alls will most certainly suck.
