The only contract with the reader I care about is the one that says I will give a damn about my writing and put effort into it. I worry, though, that the books I find insultingly bland and formulaic or just poorly written were also labors of love and effort for their writers.
I'm sure I could write a book about a love triangle involving a vampire and a werewolf if I really tried, but since my favorite werewolf has always been the man with the dull, grey voice from Prince Caspian, I doubt I'd have a run away best seller on my hands.
