Why Don't the Writers/Authors themselves get as much Credit as the Actors/Celebrities?

[Just Wondering]

Well, I wish more people thought like you!

You're absolutely right. But writer's always get the worse end of the deal. They get paid the least in the movies and tv. They don't get as much credit as the actors. If you write childrens' books, you don't get as much money as the illustrator, or as much attention.

I think it's because people who don't write think writing is easy and anyone can do it.

While anyone can do it, not everyone can do it well. But that's the way it is, and I don't see it changing.

Still, thanks for your support!

I think it's completely unfair and once a movie is made, the book is almost forgotten. The author gets no credit except a name at the end credits and if you're lucky, on the cover.

Hello? They created it! I reckon they should write the Screenplay, too. It's their creation, why can't they help develop it?

I think cause movies don't say in the commerical's (ex- "Come see George Orwell's 'Animal Farm'") instead they say (ex- "Catch Brad Pitt in "Some Movie"). The writer's name should be on the posters in a font bigger than who ever is in it.
