Do I or Don't I?

I recently read an article about Young Adult novels. The more colorful the language, (cursing), the better the review.
Ouch.
I was talking with some fellow writers over the weekend, the topic being a reader found a section in one of their books offensive and put the book down, never to pick it up again. It had to do with a love, or sex scene.
Hmmm.
I read the book and found nothing I would consider offensive. In fact, it was quite a good story.
Another writer friend is having great success with his first novel, YA Dystopian, which portrays graphic violence.
Well done and congratulations!
My point you ask?
Well, my books have minimal violence, no sex scenes, and the rare cuss word is in another language. I’ll be honest. I am a little worried. Will my books make the cut?
Then I remembered what Robert McCammon, Science Fiction Author, said during a keynote speech at a writer’s conference.
“Don’t write for the industry, or to fill the niche. Write from your heart. Write what you love.”
Not everyone is going to love or even like what I write. Some will, I hope more than don’t. But at the end of the day, if I love what I have written, then I am fulfilling my purpose.
As Author Robert Dugoni once said in his now famous opening keynote speech, “This Day We Write!!!”
