520    Collects interviews and essays from contemporary authors 
       on the financial realities of the writing world. 
520    "A collection of essays from today's most acclaimed 
       authors--from Cheryl Strayed to Roxane Gay to Jennifer 
       Weiner, Alexander Chee, Nick Hornby, and Jonathan Franzen-
       -on the realities of making a living in the writing world.
       In the literary world, the debate around writing and 
       commerce often begs us to take sides: either writers 
       should be paid for everything they do or writers should 
       just pay their dues and count themselves lucky to be 
       published. You should never quit your day job, but your 
       ultimate goal should be to quit your day job. It's an 
       endless, confusing, and often controversial conversation 
       that, despite our bare-it-all culture, still remains 
       taboo. In Scratch, Manjula Martin has gathered interviews 
       and essays from established and rising authors to confront
       the age-old question: how do creative people make money? 
       As contributors including Jonathan Franzen, Cheryl Strayed,
       Roxane Gay, Nick Hornby, Susan Orlean, Alexander Chee, 
       Daniel Jose Older, Jennifer Weiner, and Yiyun Li candidly 
       and emotionally discuss money, MFA programs, teaching 
       fellowships, finally getting published, and what success 
       really means to them, Scratch honestly addresses the 
       tensions between writing and money, work and life, 
       literature and commerce. The result is an entertaining and
       inspiring book that helps readers and writers understand 
       what it's really like to make art in a world that runs on 
       money--and why it matters. Essential reading for aspiring 
       and experienced writers, and for anyone interested in the 
       future of literature, Scratch is the perfect bookshelf 
       companion to On Writing, Never Can Say Goodbye, and MFA 
       vs. NYC"--|cProvided by publisher.
