I was able to get the writer to grab the attributes for the block as long as the "Use the block name to create blocks" was set to Yes under the advanced parameters. Then make sure you have an attribute called autocad_block_name that has the correct block name from the template file.
I've uploaded my test workspace and template file.
+1Hi,
Thank you for the response I do understand the basic part of attributes and writers, what I'm trying to do is to have a block with a single attribute that has multiple lines. I have the block defined in the template file with the multiple line attribute. But after running the workspace it reverts back to a single line attribute.

New template and workspace.
I added a multiline attribute.
I would be happy to have a look at your template/workspace if you'd like.
