An interesting piece on the short story from Jon Bauer and the fantastic LiteraryMinded:
Have you ever had that moment on a dance floor where, mid-boogie, you look around and think, what the hell are we all doing? I had a moment like that when I was thinking about tonight. All these have been designed, printed, bound, cut, driven thousand of kilometres around the country; put online, all for short stories. The Minister is here. There’s one, two, three, ten thousand people…
So since it’s why we’re here, what is a short story?
