I would agree, absolutely, that the writer's first job is, after all, to WRITE, and I would further agree that they can't get better at it if they don't do it.

This is, basically, the point I was trying to make earlier--there's a difference between being a writer and being a published author. One is doing one thing; the other another. That's all.
