/lit/ - Literature

I don't really see the problem with this. Neither of these authors are trying to be artistic; they didn't set out with the objective of appealing to an artistic community. They're commercial authors, I'm sure if you asked them, they would completely agree with you: their goal is to tell a story and make money from said story. Prose, imagery, etc, comes second to plot, unlike literary fiction, as you well know, which is the converse. They are very good at what they do; the same can be said for Dan Brown. No matter how shit the writing, they achieve their goal of providing entertainment. They don't set out to write literature, so why do we sit around here pretending they do?

Pic semi-related: You insist on confusing an art form with something completely different.
