Reminds me of this piece: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37628606

Gil: Would you read it?

Hemingway: Your novel?

Gil: Yeah, it’s like 400 pages long and I’m just looking for an opinion.

Hemingway: My opinion is that I hate it.

Gil: You haven’t even read it yet.

Hemingway: If it’s bad, I'll hate it because I hate bad writing. If it’s good I’ll be envious and I’ll hate it all the more. You don’t want the opinion of another writer.

It's too bad he does not answer how to write better. It's more about making a career out of it.
