No One Uses A Ribbon Typewriter Any More, But Your Final Draft Is Not The Time To Try To Wring A Few More Sheets Out Of Your Inkjet Cartridge.

Short-story Writing Requires An Exquisite Sense Of Balance. Novelists, Frankly, Can Get Away With More. A Novel Can Have A Dull Spot Or Two, Because The Reader Has Made A Different Commitment.
