@Meaningness he's a gruff man, but nattily dressed and with a twinkle in his eye

@sarahdoingthing One of the main things I realized while working on my novel is that you need to describe people’s clothes at great length

@sarahdoingthing I think they must teach that in creative writing classes, which is where journalists come from I guess

@Meaningness that's the biggest giveaway that s.t. was written by a journalist not a real scientist

@sarahdoingthing @Meaningness something something meaning blah blah stories come on guys you know how this works

@KevinSimler Yeah, I think @sarahdoingthing is expressing annoyance, not incomprehension!

@KevinSimler @sarahdoingthing Meta question: whether that crap works, or if it is just the only thing creative writing majors know how to do

@Meaningness @sarahdoingthing I think it works = it's what people like to read? Market for stories/journalism is pretty free/efficient.
