But if you don't get all wordy, then how can you pad the word count to meet publisher's requirement? Write more plot and character? Like that ever works.

[(Anonymous)]

I wonder if authors who drown the reader in verbiage did politics and communication degrees. We were always told to never use one word when ten would would do, and never use ten when you could use a hundred.

[(Anonymous)]

tbh this really depends on the style of writing and the pov of the narration. If it's written from the pov of someone who really IS that wordy then I give it a pass.

I don't think I've ever wanted to edit a book so badly in my life.

It made me develop a theory that publishers are only accepting manuscripts based on the first chapter (which tends to be the most polished in workshops), and not bothering to edit the rest of the book at all.

[(Anonymous)]

This one's been on my list for a while. Wordiness aside, is the story good?

[(Anonymous)]

OP has never read Wilkie Collins.

[(Anonymous)]

Damn, I have that syndrome.

I must admit that I'm guilty of this, but I'm not a professional writer.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

Thank you secret-maker!

[(Anonymous)]

This sounds like a podcast/show I'd like to listen to! Realizing there's so many songs and stories I like and learning they're (many of them) are Sondheim's makes me want to learn more about him and the works. Thanks, OP!

[(Anonymous)]

Ah I've seen a couple of great versions of Merrily that really make it work, and others that were woeful. But then sometimes theatre companies get weird when they do Sondheim - I saw the most ponderous Assassins by a professional company that totally sucked the life out of it.

Alas, people are terminally online and think shipping the right pair counts for activism

What I've found fun as a kind of casual observer is how may people would vote a person guilty (or not guilty) not because they think they ARE guilty (or not guilty), but to try and force some kind of revelation on them. It'll be interesting to see how their long game goes.
