What an impressive list Nancy. Both parts.
I have studied and read many of these authors. I think that Stephen King's "On Writing" is one of my most important resources. I've read it at least once a year since it was published.
I love to compare Faulkner and his hundred word sentences with Hemmingway and his three word efforts. Both have something to tell me...
Thanks Nancy. Per normal it's well written and thought out. I really do appreciate it.
