WriterMate's reading

A difference of 1 title means WriterMate reads this as holding steady. With a sample of 20 titles, swapping a single title already moves the figure by 5.0%, so we require a change of at least 2 titles before calling it a rise or fall. 100.0% of the titles carrying action also carry adventure. It is more accurate to read this as the "action + adventure" combination moving, rather than the genre on its own. Next most common: growth(75.0%), growth(62.5%).
