The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson by Robert Louis Stevenson: VAILIMA, SAMOA, DECEMBER 3RD, 1893.
DEAR JOHNNIE, - Well, I must say you seem to be a tremendous
fellow! Before I was eight I used to write stories - or dictate
them at least - and I had produced an excellent history of Moses,
for which I got 1 pound from an uncle; but I had never gone the
length of a play, so you have beaten me fairly on my own ground. I
hope you may continue to do so, and thanking you heartily for your
nice letter, I shall beg you to believe me yours truly,
ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON.
Letter: TO RUSSELL P-N
VAILIMA, SAMOA, DECEMBER 3RD, 1893.
