And somehow, this trend is emerging in what people are reading and enjoying. With younger readers, in stiff competitive worlds, always running short of time and with stress levels bursting at the seams, we cannot deny them the pleasure of their “quick-bus-ride” or “light-after-dinner” reading material. Chic-lit and populist novels are selling like hot-cakes, pointing to the facts that many people are reading, and publishing houses are ready to experiment and cater to changing audience and reading habits” [...] [...] This blog post by felinemusings has some interesting thoughts too: “Populist writing is like a Govinda or a Priyadarshan movie – the masses love it, the classes shrink from it; but at the end of the day slap-stick comedies and garish masala movies are the ones that rake the most moolah.

I have often wondered about the proliferation of the populist books too - a sad reality. Its amazing when you are having dinner with a group of well-educated friends, and they look at you like you are crazy because you haven't read Dan Brown. But ask them about Camus or Kafka, all you get is a complete blank! Have fun with your writing! Cheers, S. Excellent post.

This is a golden time for young Indian writers as there is a sudden wave of willing publishers and welcoming readers. Getting publishes is not a herculian task anymore. What is a lil' bit tough is to sustain it. :) Loved this post. I am writing my book too, lets see how it shapes up. Totally agree with Faulkner.
