DOING IT FOR LOVEBY ERICA JONGDESPITE ALL THE CYNICAL THINGS WRITERS HAVE SAID ABOUT WRIT-ing for money, the truth is we write for love. That is why it is so easyto exploit us. That is also why we pretend to be hard-boiled, sayingthings like "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money"(Samuel Johnson). Not true. No one but a blockhead ever wrote exceptfor love.
