On Writing Short Stories: Observations and Apercus
Nick James · Posted on May 24, 2015June 7, 2016
This piece was first published in The Short Story in 2016   A short story writer should be interested in everything. Susan Sontag said that, or something like it. But everything about everyone? Perhaps not. In 1999 I wrote my first short story and submitted it to a new publisher called Tindal Street Press, an …
