Publishers will lose a showcase for their books, which could mean more laid-off editors. Yet the problem is not the 【C2】______: writers will still scribble for scraps.

B
解析
空格前的is提示空格处应填入形容词或分词。由下文的“作者就可把书写完”推断书是没有写完的,词库中的part-written“写了部分的”符合要求。词库中的fully-written“完全写好了的”与下文的canafford to finish it相悖,可排除。
