Active Ink Slinger

A friend of mine posted this on social media, a quote from a writing class: "The moment you as a writer forget that you're an entertainer, you're doomed. If you have some artsy-fartsy kind of "Oh, I'm not an entertainer, I'm an artist," well, that's good, you ARE an artist. But...[hands open, making a gesture as if handing something gently to the viewer]...your art. Is entertainment."
