You'll write a better book if it's about something you are passionate about which may be in demand rather than a book that may be about a popular subject matter, but lacks passion.

Just a bit of advice, don't talk down to kids. I remember when I was little, I had a VERY big vocabulary, and I read a pre-teen book that said this, "She knows big words like combustion because she's a poet." I had the urge to put the book down.

Don't pick a genre or an audience and then decide to write for it because you think it will sell more, or you will end up writing a terrible book.
