[#]WritersCoffeeClub 8: Do you agree with Samuel Johnson, who said, “No man but a blockhead ever wrote, except for money”?

It would be hard to disagree more. As someone who must write for money to survive, I can tell you that writing for money is poison for creativity, and some of us are just forced to build up a tolerance for poison.

For me, writing is difficult, frustrating, and draining. It's also nourishing and deeply rewarding. If I didn't need to write for money, I'd write a lot more.
