Aysha is right with what he's telling you. Ambition is all well and good, but if once you've written something, and you know you won't enjoy reading it yourself, don't expect others to. The big thing is, at least this is what I've seen with the good writers on many sites, is that first and foremost, they write for themselves.

I'm sorry if I'm not being clear, but I am trying to be helpful. So I'll give it one more try and hopefully you can take something from it. What I am trying to say is that you need to let yourself write what you want to write. Something that when you read it you say to yourself. "That's a good story, I enjoyed it." Then let other people decide whether or not it is a great peace of work You may have to rewrite it fifty times before a publisher will accept it and then it could still fall flat in the public eye. However you will never know until you LET YOURSELF WRITE IT. That's all I have to say about that. Good luck!

Welllll....from what my published friends tell me, the act of publishing can be eviscerating, as you go through the copy edits and many other things BEFORE your book is ready to be published.
