#WritersCoffeeClub Ch 16 Nbr 08 — Do you agree with [], “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money”?

I left out the attribution because I don't want to judge the intentions of the person quoted.

I see naught wrong with getting paid for writing. However, I can't see writing without communicating something I want other people to think about. Thus, I'd reframe the quote as, "Nobody but a blockhead ever wrote only for money." If they did, they did not understand their own human nature.
