      I adore reading long narrative magazine pieces (when they're good, not self-indulgently long) but I'm terrible at that kind of writing. Should I try to learn it, or should I stick with my strengths and stay focused on ideas and analysis?

      a description of scenery/landscape or a person in a specific place as a means of immediately establishing a setting?

      lol yes, I admit that I am basic but more broadly I mean stories that focus on a character and that character's experience / journey as a lens for a larger issue, rather than going straight to the object level

      the secret is if you want to do things like this but don't have the ear yet to weave it all together all you have to do is write two pieces

      write the narrative of the character, write the analysis of the situation, chop both up into sections, alternate between pieces' sections with fancy section breaks

      if there's one thing I learned from english program it's aside from legitimate Great Works, anything of any apparent depth or quality can be constructed according to a process

          This is my take on writing novels. I think that, objectively, I wrote two novels that are each better than 90+% of SF novels on the shelves...and I did it largely by following rules and processes

          have you blogged about your novel construction process at all? I bet that would be really interesting!
