pjthompsonRandom quote of the day:
“The most of the successful authors of the short fiction of today never went to no kind of college, or if they did, they studied piano turning or the barber trade. They could of got just as far in what I call the literary game if they had of stayed home those four years and helped mother carry out the empty bottles.”
—Ring Lardner, “How to Write Short Stories”
A hilarious “essay,” which can be read in full here.
