>Lawmakers, publishers, and the public must recognize authors as professionals deserving fair pay and dignity. We urge collective action to build a system that properly values the essential contributions of writers to society. The Authors Guild will continue this fight until the stark income disparities revealed in our survey are remedied by overdue reforms
Do these people really think they can come up with an actual solution to these problems?
- graphe 3y agoWhen I read that I was thinking of changing authors to any other "perceived useless job". Their demand is fit more money because they produce value somehow? What value?
- max_ 3y agoWell, I have learnt alot from some books. The entertainment value is also value.
- graphe 3y agoThe books they mostly mention are romance novels and all fiction. I have and mostly continue to avoid them because honestly most of them are rags and it's not worth checking out from the volumes of garbage unless they're recommended by a person I know of esteem.
