Career Profitability and Perks

As for rewards, everyone gets Observant in my game. Other than that, it depends on their traits and LTW. My party animals both got the Legendary Host one. My guy who wanted level 10 in two skills got Fast Learner. Then, I focused on the friend retention wants because with two party animals, those were a lot of friend-loss notifications.
I was focusing on the Distant Friend type rewards for my socially-inclined Sims until I realized that one of the Charisma skill rewards (Super Friendly) featured non-decay of friendships. Now I save the lifetime reward points for bigger and better things, as the people likely to care about friends are the easiest ones to get 20 friends for anyway.

But he's completed a couple of books since and still no vaudeville. His next wish is for 40 books, so maybe it's at 40 books?
I can confirm that Vaudeville does not require 40 books, as my sim has only written 29 books and this option became available a couple novels ago.
I don't know why you're not getting the Vaudeville genre. Perhaps this is a trait/career issue?
Interestingly, my sim doesn't have the Romance Novelist challenge available. Maybe Feature Article Writer supplants Romance Novelist? You can only have three at a time?
Zazazu:
The X Genre Writer achievement is genre-specific. If you look at the text before achieving, it says you must have 5 books of a certain genre to get it. You have 8 Feature Articles, and <4 of each other type, so that's the one you have. I wonder if you can get the achievement more than once by doing 5 of several types? One of my sims wants level 10 writership and level 10 painting.
BlueSoup:
Yeah, my Sim is now a Satirist actually. But I still have no vaudeville, and he's at like 57 novels. So I have no idea what the requirement to get it actually is.

If no one beats me to it, I will test this out next time I play. (Write 5 novels of some other genre and see if my sim loses Feature Article Writer status and gains something else, or if both achievements can be maintained simultaneously.)

Did your sim lose Romance Novelist status after becoming a Satirist?
