Heya! ::waves:: I wandered over here from the link you posted in lkh_lashouts, so hopefully you don't mind me commenting here. Your LJ layout is *gorgeous*, btw! ^_^
This random thought of yours is rather interesting, y'know, and it got me thinking about this as well. The reasons you came up with about the main demographic is probably why someone *hasn't* started some sort of a fiction network yet. I know there's BookTV, which seems to only cover *very* yawn-worthy nonfiction stuff, but that's it. But you have to wonder...book-inspired shows/movies could actually fill up a good bit of slots, and a truly creative person could probably come up with some interesting shows to air.
But I guess we bookworms/writers aren't as lucrative a public as would-be chefs or artists, hm? Ah, well. We have our craft! ;)
