Anne Lamott has a chapter in Bird by Bird about writing for the trashcan, but don't sell yourself short--you can write for the whole landfill. I believe in you.

@Liz_Prato I submit about 1/20th what I used to. Even when I’m writing essays or short stories now I’m shaping them into a book.

@kslunstrum @LoriOstlund Several Peter Taylor stories come to mind, but it's been years since I read them, and, iirc, they are approaching novella length. A couple from Janet Peery's Alligator Dance too. Tom Franklin's Poachers (also very long).

I didnt go to AWP because my panel proposal didnt get accepted. It was just going to be me alone on stage listing writing rules I hate in an increasingly angry tone while Toto's "Africa" plays softly in the background. Their loss.

Good mail day getting the new novel from my Arkansas buddy ⁦@elicranor⁩ who is tearing it up. Looking forward to this. If y’all haven’t read Eli’s first book, Don’t Know Tough, you should. https://t.co/iYkyGQpHb0

@leila_mansouri @alexanderchee Highly recommend Rust Hills’ book Writing in General and the Short Story in Particular.

@starwuerdemann John Jeremiah Sullivan. It's the first essay in his collection Pulphead. Originally pubbed in GQ. https://t.co/Q82ZSk7MuA

I don’t know who needs to hear this right now, but if you block Paul Simon’s face with your thumb on the Bridge Over Troubled Water album, it looks like Garfunkel has a giant Cossack mustache. https://t.co/RIpxn3CC7q
