Isn't that Randall Jarrell's definition of a novel? "A long
prose narrative that had something wrong with it."
I'm guilty of the "What a crap writer" accusations, too. And
it's fine except when someone else says it about someone I
like. I know that's completely and awfully unfair. So what?
Makes life fun.
