Writer's offspring a rich family member (10)
I believe the answer is:
rothschild
'a rich family member' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'writer's offspring' is the wordplay.
'writer's' becomes 'Roth's' (novelist Philip Roth).
'offspring' becomes 'child' (child is a kind of offspring).
'roths'+'child'='ROTHSCHILD'
Can you help me to learn more?
