Well, if a person has a good story but can’t write, for example some civil rights activist, or war/catastrophe survivor, they will often use a ghostwriter to help with the actual writing.

That’s not what I’m referring to. Good writing is not limited to professional writers, and focus on the medium can often be a distraction from good ideas.
