Is books must to have commercials?

Everyone wanna be a writer and made a novel. But fewer of them realize how it's a very difficult task, let alone to achieving just Best-sellers and matured. In the past twenty years, the books industry have suffocated to a very risky pattern-- to release tons of Infomercials and PSAs books than actual narratives. The first series that brought on mind of this tendency is the most obvious one: Stephanie Meyer's epic saga Twilight!

To think author Stpehen King have even praised that Meyer have none chance to made a very-compelling Best-seller novel and be a hit to audience is an understandment. Unfortunately for him and us, this five-books serial have "sucked" many readers by also infantilized literature at its worst, for both the industry and artform. The book series having declined to a very unwatchable and tiresome series of movies, one that may explain why as these things could exists. While working on the local Salvation Army before, I was astonished to the many Twilight copies they given us as if this is the only kind of literature they knows in this planet. We already reach a point of no-return with Meyer's bland social-commentary and that romance with vampires is also soul-crushingly defective than anything from the Hallmark movies library.

It's at this point that we finally get what looks to be a live-action world of the Hanna-Barbera empire. Sure, it's not at joyful or agreable, but one that are so campy that even the many Scooby-Doo writers would never bear to touch it for save their lives.

And why books can't even themselves add commercials if this is been like this for started?

Because this is to me pretty difficult to found someone with a book in hand than they have with iPhones, headphones or those crappy sunglass, and that the job of books novellist is not that inspiring that it used to, maybe the biggest solution (and also, the drawback) to given books such of an attraction to their owners and fans is made use of commercials. Like on TV, Radio, Magazines and also in movie screens, there is no point to ran a business in life without any publicity. Ran commercials on a book is risky for business and the minds of fans who want something more usual than generic social media ads scams, but nowadays, lots of books become Infomercials on themselves, that they'll stop to be actually stories for many years. They become also PSAs for that matter by be very preachy.

Because we are no more in the 20th century! The books industry need to stop to made their smug attitude to those who help them to ran good sales and goes where consumers usually go. That would be enough to admit why most local bookstores have closed their down in the past ten years if the reception is no longer the same. 

If J.K. Rowling (No! She is not a transphobic despite what most X trolls love to says) from its Harry Potter fame have helped kids to read books again and get the kids fantasy literature away of its cynical elitism, Stephanie Meyer have launched the begin of the era when any books we would read are like seen badly-acted actors who says tons of wisecracks in a old 30-minutes Infomercial. This tendency has also touched hardly the comics and graphic novel artfrom since around 2012.
