Or they aren't motivated by money. Books are like music, you get the most profit by writing to a formula that is popular at the time. The chances of someone writing what they want to write and then ending up with a bestseller are next to zero. It does happen now and again, but it's no coincidence that when it does happen there's lots of similar stuff available almost immediately.
