Men aren't writing books anymore, or at least not getting them published. The literary industry is deeply unhealthy from what little I've heard.
I can guarantee you its not that men aren't writing, its that publishing companies are giving them the same DEI blockade as every other industry.
Most of them aren't trying to buy a book to sell because its a good book. They are trying to buy an author to sell a story about you in which the book is just a secondary thought. Its why like every third book now is a memoir or biography.
