    I'm starting to read a book written as a collaboration by two authors, and I always wonder how that works.

    There are publishing contracts that involve a senior and a junior writer on the same project, where the senior writer does less of the work, but oversees the whole development, and lends their name recognition. But, this seems different than that. I suppose it's the same thing as two people directing a show or a movie together, like the Russo brothers or the Coen brothers. I hope it's an equal contribution.

      @kimlockhartga @bookstodon I wonder if Emma Bull and Steven Brust wrote anything about their process on "Freedom and Necessity". That seemed like a 50/50 collab (it's an epistolary novel, and I think they wrote alternate chapters).
