Thanks for this!

I particularly liked this author’s response:

Nicholas Belardes

"Sometimes I cross my name out and sign. I do it out of respect for myself, for the idea of accomplishment, for the idea that writers are real people, that we can touch our manuscripts in ways that transcend the printed objects they've become. Our works become even more personal this way, because our signatures are more physically attributed to us in the world than even fingerprints."
