They leave the actual money-grubbing to their agents and publishers.

I would imagine that the very THOUGHT of being thrown into the (metaphorical) poor-house would be enough motivation to get their creative juices flowing. There again, if there is no longer the prospect of making a bazillion dollars for scribbling a few paragraphs or so — then I guess I won't bother either.

I guess I'll just have to get a real job after all.
