Oct. 1st, 2007 03:38 pmStephen King on short story writing:
"Writers write for whatever audience is left. In too many cases, that audience happens to consist of other writers and would-be writers who are reading the various literary magazines ... not to be entertained but to get an idea of what sells there. And this kind of reading isn't real reading... It's more like copping-a-feel reading. There's something yucky about it."
Oh, I love you Stephen King.
