For a decade or so monster movies are big then it's SF and them Musicals and then cop dramas like Dirty Harry etc. People get a glut of one genre and switch to another for a while til they get tired of it and switch again.

Agreed. I wasn't picking on you or anything. I just think I am noticing a trend with a lot of readers and writers towards mysteries. And it will change as soon as I write another mystery with no paranormal elements. So, I'm getting ahead of the trend. I better just write paranormal elements.
