“From Julia Alvarez’s explanation about why her haiku-a-month project failed to Abigail DeWitt’s confession that all her characters are versions of herself, this book is a treasure trove.”
Shannon Ravenel
Abigail DeWitt’s short fiction, an essay about writing, and photographs of her writing studio appear in the anthology, What Writers Do, along with work by John Updike, Frank McCourt, Sharon Olds and others.
