You know, or something like that.

You have a point - and I guess I'm just jaded because I see so many people who promote themselves as writers and so obviously can't.
Sex Story Text isn't in the business of training people to write although we do give tips to people who have potential and Marie has written about writing for the Web on several occasions in another place. So if somebody doesn't understand the need for paragraphs or can't write without continually using 'and then' we don't want them.
But if they can write - and write from experience - then we certainly can use them and pay them a much better price for their work than most brokers can offer.
So thanks for encouraging me to clarify what I said earlier
