Length? A couple of days read.

Setting? Real world writing issues.
Written approximately? 1994.
Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? I'd like to read the updated version with internet research covered.
Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? Yes. Internet research, tone back the repetitiveness, and clarify this mostly aimed at short story writers, not novelists.
Short storyline: A discussion, with practice opportunities, to study short story writing.
Notes for the reader: A few sections mention that there is a difference for novelists over short story writers. Some aspects are less clear which are being spoken too. ( )
