>From Tracy Ryan:
I don't often speak on this list, but feel constrained
to now! I am surprised that anyone would be sarcastic
about a writer expecting to be paid for his/her work,
& surely the fee that writer requests is his/her own business.
As far as I'm concerned (and I don't know the man personally) Andrew
Motion's finances are his own business. We live in the real world, &
people have bills to pay. Or have I missed the point of what
AB is saying???
Tracy.
