"but why write them and not put in the effort?"

Because artistic integrity don't pay the bills? Sherlock Holmes was basically ACD's job, and he doesn't seem to have been at all romantic about his writing. Might have had something to do with watching his father drink himself to death over his failed painting career while his mother tried to keep the family from starving.

ACD was one of the highest paid authors of his time, partly because he raised his prices for more Holmes stories after he got tired of writing them, and publishers agreed to his fees. So it's not like it was down to a choice between writing more Sherlock Holmes vs. starving in the gutter at that point in his career.

Besides, if you rely on something to pay your bills, that's a stronger argument for trying to do a good job. Phoning it in when you need the money badly is dumb.
