    Hi, I've been writing for a while now but never really been able to complete anything.
    An idea I have that I really like is a sports fiction book based around snooker. Is sports fiction a viable market or is it an unpublishable genre?

    It depends how you write it. Dick Francis made a career out of writing about racing.

    On the face of it, snooker seems a hard one to make into a book, but if you can do it, good luck to you.

    If you have a great story then little else matters.

    I was once shown a link to this book.

    If you can make a story about that, you can make a story about anything.

    I didn't even know horses could be lesbian.
