I'm not going to rag on mysteries altogether, it was one of the reasons I got into writing, because I loved Chandler and Cain and Hammett, and I'll probably always write something in the mystery genre myself. But it is a tad oversaturated now.

Oversaturated? Have you looked at the erotica/supernatural field lately.... Now THAT is oversaturated!
How many sexy vampires/werewolves/demons/ghosts/withces/wizards/whatever novels can you write? I mean, it's not as if you can "re-create" the genre.
