About the Author

Will Blythe was the literary editor as Esquire magazine for many years and now is a regular contributor to Harpers, Mirabella and many other magazines.

From the Back Cover

To pursue a vocation like fiction writing these days demands an almost religious sense of mission. With so little chance of making a living, let alone a fortune, how does one come to terms with the impulse to write? In this landmark anthology, twenty-six of America's most exciting and accomplished writers of fiction illuminate the motivations at the heart of their creative lives in ways as surprising and varied as their fiction.
