And the writers responded in a myriad of ways. Margaret Atwood, Frank Conroy, William Gass, Czeslaw Milosz, Susan Sontag, James Michener, Joyce Carol Oates, and others offered snap-shot reflections on the process, some thoughtful and deep, others downright silly.

This LT Work is Daniel Halpern's anthology, Who’s Writing This? Notations on the Authorial I, with Self-Portraits, published separately as a retail hardcover (1995) and reissued in trade paperback format (2009). It includes selections from 56 Authors, some of which are shared but are not entirely the same as the similarly titled Spring 1994 volume of Antæus magazine, No. 73/74, which Halpern also edited. Please maintain our distinction between these different Works. Thank you.
