The Use of Language in Short Works

  • Lyric Theatre 245 E. Main Street Harbor Springs, MI 49740 (map)

Readers think in chapters. Writers think in word counts. Most of them. But what about writers who find their footholds in the rhapsody of poetry, or the precise and concise arc of a short story? When one’s count is limited, is there a greater emphasis on how words are selected, clustered and laid out on the page? We talk so much about plot and characters, but find it daunting to consider craft. Not today, good readers!
