Als Söldnerunternehmen wollte ich eine Story für die CBC Literary Awards schreiben - 5.000 Dollar für eine Story, nicht schlecht. Nun, wie gewinnt man es? Juroren gehen durch Wolkenkratzer aus Papier und suchen nach einer Geschichte, die auffällt.

Rob Corddry

I was well traveled, and I created this illusion of literacy through reading and writing. I wrote a book of short stories.

The story drove the book. That had a very seminal effect on the way I saw writing and storytelling. If you can set a character in a story that is compelling and has a backbone, you draw people in.
