What an incredible perspective on the craft of writing by such a legend. Her speech really inspired me, because too many people today focus on the monetary/material reward than the actual crafts. As a result, many writers are forced to write for sales results instead of from their hearts. This is very common in the music and other industries designed for entertaining. I hope this creative genuis will be a constant reminder and inspiration to me, as I pursue my lifelong passion of becoming a writer and storyteller.
