Commercial fiction is fiction that puts the reader first. That means writers, editors, agents, and publishers generally tend to make edits and revisions in order to create a story that all readers will love, not just those with master’s degrees in creative writing.

Unlike most literary fiction, commercial fiction novels appeal to a wider audience of reader’s and thus tend to have much higher sales potential. That’s why so many agents and publishers focus exclusively on commercial fiction.
