Literary Fiction vs. Everything Else
I love literary fiction. Some of my favorite novels are The Grapes of Wrath, The Catcher in the Rye, and To Kill a Mockingbird, all of which would be classified as literary fiction. These are the kind of books that people study and analyze. They’re taught in schools.
Practical Advice for Writing Dialect
Please welcome guest author Alyssa Hollingsworth with tips on writing dialect. I’ll be honest: I’ve always been terrified of dialect because it’s easy to get wrong. But when done well, it can make a story shine.
If I choose to write a literary novel should I follow the same steps ? What about theme as opposed to Story goal? I am confused.
Question: I chose to write a literary novel as opposed to genre. How about theme as opposed to story goal? Should I use both theme and story goal? You

Jane Austen’s Emma at 200

If you enjoyed a good book and you’re a woman, the critics think you’re wrong
If you enjoyed a good book and you’re a woman, the critics think you’re wrong
“Unlike critics who write about film or food or music, book critics are rarely required to engage with popular material. Critics ignore the books that people are actually reading; readers ignore the critics and the books they tout; everyone goes home happy.
But, every once in a while, a literary novel becomes tremendously popular, transcending the typical sales for literary fiction and making its way onto bestseller lists. About 15 years ago, books might have gotten a boost from Oprah’s endorsement; these days, it’s word of mouth that propels lucky titles – a magical synchronicity that publicists try to plot and editors pray for that gets not only devoted readers but casual ones to give a long, literary novel a try…”
Separating literary and genre fiction is act of ‘self-mutilation’
Separating literary and genre fiction is act of ‘self-mutilation’
By David Barnett
“Author David Mitchell has let loose the latest salvo in the perennial “literary vs genre” war by saying that those who dismiss fantasy and science fiction are committing a “bizarre act of self-mutilation”.
Mitchell is one of the handful of authors with a foot in both camps. He’s beloved of the literary establishment, and has been shortlisted for the Man Booker prize twice, and longlisted on a further three occasions. On the other hand, on Sunday he lifted the best novel trophy in the World Fantasy awards for his 2014 novel Bone Clocks, and his latest book, The Slade House, is an unabashed haunted house story.
Interviewed by Wired for a podcast put online just ahead of the World Fantasy convention where the awards were announced, Mitchell spoke about his fantasy and SF reading roots…”

The Ultimate Guide To Getting Published In A Literary Magazine
The Ultimate Guide To Getting Published In A Literary Magazine
By Dan Metho
“Here’s everything you need to know before submitting your work to the literary publication of your dreams:
PART I: How Lit Mags Work
The Ecology of the Slush Pile (or What Are You Competing Against?)
Let’s start with how lit mags submissions actually work, because the process can be somewhat — and probably intentionally — opaque.
When you submit to a literary magazine, your work gets thrown (either literally if submitted through the mail or figuratively if submitted electronically) into the “slush pile.” This isn’t the most inspiring name, and conjures an image of gigantic piles of dirty, half-melted snow flung carelessly out of the road by shovels and ploughs. This actually may be an accurate metaphor. The slush pile is a mess. Great stories absolutely come out of the slush pile, but they are hidden among the typo-ridden rants, third-rate Raymond Carver imitations, and haikus handwritten on hotel napkins. A good portion of the slush is filled with work that doesn’t fit even the basic parameters of the journal: fantasy novellas sent to Postmodern Poetry Review and LOTR fan fiction sent to Quiet Realism Monthly.
Most editors would probably consider at least 60% of the slush pile to be unpublishable, period. (Many have told me 80–90%, but I’ll be generous here.) Twenty percent shows promise but needs some work, and 10% is publishable but not in the journal being submitted to. That leaves 10% of work that might deserve real consideration.
Writers, this is actually good news!
Most good magazines accept around 1% of the work they get. But if you know you are writing work that is coherent, proofread, and in the vein of what the magazine publishes, then you’ve vaulted into the top 10% off the bat…and 1/10 is a lot better odds than 1/100…”

‘Highbrow’ and ‘middlebrow’ are irrelevant when it comes to which writing survives
Highbrow’ and ‘middlebrow’ are irrelevant when it comes to which writing survives
By John Dale
“Clearing out my office in preparation for a faculty move, I am faced with the dilemma of what books to retain and what to discard. With non-fiction it is easy: keep any reference books that might prove useful in later life, such as the Oxford Guide to Philosophy or Primates of the World. But with fiction, particularly Australian fiction, it is harder to decide.
