It sucks to think that by trying to break into the field, in any way possible, I will be considered less than good for my choices.
On the other hand, I think that no matter what career decisions you make, someone will consider you less than good for your choices.
I've seen as much criticism for trying to write "those literary novels" as for trying to write "those tie in novels." Criticisms for writing too fast and too slow, for writing the wrong sorts of books, for caring too little about character and caring too much.
Maybe ultimately we all piece together careers how we can, and learn and adjust how we go. :-)
