Rick Moody: Why I Write

BECAUSE

<p>Why do writers write? George Orwell once listed ‘four great motives,’ Joan Didion said she writes so that readers listen to her, and Terry Tempest Williams said ‘I write to meet my ghost.’ In <i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Write-Acclaimed-Authors/dp/0452298156/" target="_blank">Why We Write</a></i>, edited by Meredith Maran, 20 acclaimed authors answer that question, and novelist Rick Moody responds to Orwell, Didion and Tempest Williams.</p>
