We were talking on another post about how they noted 'don't write for yourself, write for your audience' - which I think is half true... writing for marketing and audience interaction of course requires wording for your demographic, but not at the expense of writing about what is your interest or passion. If you were to spend your time writing for everyone else, I'm sure the content would be stale from start to finish.
