If I'm not mistaken Stanislavksy once said something like: "the worst thing for an actor is to want to be liked by the audience...".

I think similarly, great writers don't write for the likes, they just love telling stories. And a good story never dies unappreciated.

Personally I like sell-outs, writers who aim to please and are complete morons. It's schlock and I love it. In fat, i'm thinking of paying imbeciles who can't write to write me something so I can enjoy it's utter blandness, incompetence and naivete
