sovereignty as human beings with inalienable rights to life, liberty, and
the pursuit of happiness. The “pursuit of happiness” means the right
to create wealth through our labor and to enjoy the fruits thereof.

right to the fruits of our labor. Are we to be free, or are we to be
slaves? Just whose money is it anyway?

I read, with a kind of hopeless envy, histories and legends of people of our craft who "do not write for money." It must be a pleasant experience to be able to cultivate so delicate a class of motives for the privilege of doing one's best to express one's thoughts to people who care for them. Personally, I have yet to breathe the ether of such a transcendent sphere. I am proud to say that I have always been a working woman, and always had to be.
