Jo, don't write about something you have absolutely no passion for. It would be different if you were desperate and had to go out and sell toilets despite having no passion for cisterns and such - but writing is more than a job, and if you compromise it too much you might regret it in the end.
Maybe there is middle ground between artistic integrity and commercialism? God, I hope so, but it must be hard to recognise the line sometimes between compromise, and compromising yourself.
I haven't read Secret Mothers' Business yet, though the more I talk to you, the more sure I am that it is fantastic. Just keep at it, and I'm sure you'll be on to a winner soon... maybe Things Without a Name will be the one...?

I keep the faith that someday it will be viable to write and make a living. But the truth is, that without my husband's financial support, I wouldn't be able to do this. And even with it, it sometimes feels like an indulgence.
But I hope someday to switch the roles, so that I'm the one earning, and he's the one living his dream.
You're a honey, thanks for your lovely comment before I go to bed.
Sweet dreams

I think you are lucky to have a supportive husband!
Michaelie - I write crap too! What a coincidence! LOL

Jo - no worries

Mr M and I often say the same thing about movies. We can't believe some of the crap that gets loads of money thrown at it and the good stuff doesn't get a look in.
One day Jo....one day we'll be kicking back living off those royalties and reminisce about the good ol' days when we were all broke
Love & stuff
