A glorious rant from one of the keystone authors of my first couple of decades on this spinning rock, Harlan Ellison. This is a clip from the documentary Dreams with Sharp Teeth, which is itself quite good. (I’d forgotten that I’d linked to this clip before. Forgive me!)
I was pleasantly surprised to see that almost all of HE’s books are available in Kindle format via Amazon and at great prices.

Thank you for posting this again. It’s a great reminder that writing is work and writers should be paid for that work. As a professional writer, I also experienced being undercut by the amateurs. I understand why Mr. Ellison gets so worked up about this subject.

While Harlan Ellison often comes off as an acerbic prick, his point is very good. I agree.
