Guys' Lit (?)

Have you ever wondered why there aren't more novels written expressly for dudes? I'm not talking about Sci-Fi or Fantasy or Thrillers. I'm talking about good plot-driven, character-enlivened STORIES, PERIOD. Is it any wonder that 85% of the reading market is comprised of women? The publishing industry is not serving men; it's that simple.

And don't think there aren't authors out there writing stories for men. Those authors are just being kept out of the marketplace by the almighty gatekeepers: literary agents who don't want to take a chance on anything that isn't a slam dunk. They'd rather place their bets on a thriller that's been told ten-thousand times before. Too true? Comment here or on my website: BroadlyReviledBooks.com
