So much danger somehow. I always find that I'm only partly in charge. The story goes the way it wants to go. You know, Trent, I don't think I do know of any, particularly. I wish I could be more help here.
Every sentence has to give the reader something.
It's often something intangible. I love stories that have humor threaded through, characters with wit. More and more I'm finding that I just want to be carried into the world of the story. I want to feel as though I'm there, feeling it and experiencing it. My MFA at Amherst was useful, in fact a few of the stories I wrote there are in Baby.
