Taking readers behind the scenes of contemporary literature writing, it uncovers the often-invisible processes that shape the books we read. It explores writing in an era where creation begins - and often remains - on the screen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book challenges common assumptions, and it shows that “born-digital” texts offer unprecedented insight into the dynamics of writing, creating new opportunities to observe and reconstruct the creative process of writers at work. It brings together cutting-edge research from textual genetics, digital humanities, and cognitive writing studies, employing innovative methods such as keystroke logging, stylometry, and digital forensics to trace how manuscript drafts evolve, revisions unfold, and writers navigate planning, composition, and research. Contributors demonstrate how these data-rich approaches integrate with established theories of text genetics to reveal writing as a dynamic, traceable process rather than a finished product. The volume also addresses critical challenges of digital materiality—from preserving fragile literary archives to reconceptualizing textual versions—while providing new tools and theoretical frameworks for studying twenty-first-century literary production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for scholars and graduate students in literary studies, digital humanities, textual criticism, and creative writing research, this book will appeal to researchers interested in authorship studies, manuscript genetics, book history, and the intersection of technology and literature, as well as archivists and librarians working with digital literary collections. The book is also valuable for anyone seeking to understand how contemporary writing practices are shaped by digital tools and what this means for the future of literary scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKarina van Dalen-Oskam\u003c\/b\u003e is head of the Computational Literary Studies Research Group at Huygens Institute (KNAW) and a professor in computational literary studies at the University of Amsterdam, Netherlands.
