Does writing a novel make one pretentious?

Well, I suppose it depends on the content of the novel. If the content is sincere, no. If not, yes. Pretty simple stuff.

Also it why one is doing it. Is it a genuine expression of self? Or is it a pretense for other people or an image one thinks one should embody?
If you're a fucking pleb, then yes. If you have to ask, then yes.
Don't waste your own and everyone elses time.

That's for (You) to decide.
Search your feelings.
Do you feel a natural impulse to write?
Or are you simply doing it for recognition, """"""""money"""""""", to impress others, etc.?
Writing anything over than a novel these days is pretentious.
