Kevin hit the trunk release button on the keychain he pulled from his pocket, and the rear door of the Eldorado sprang open.And I thought, if I was writing this book, I'd have written it like so:
Kevin pulled his keys and popped the hatch.It's not that I didn't like Boyos. I did. In fact, I loved it. If you like The Friends of Eddie Coyle and tales of low-level robbers, you will too.
But in that moment, it became clear to me why I can't seem to write a book more than 40,000 words long. (The Owl & Raccoon novellas clock in at 18,000. Regret Things is right about 40,000.) Twenty years in advertising may have made me a better writer, but they've left me incapable of fluff. My books are short because I can't bring myself to use more words than I have to.
As the punk guys used to say, "If your song isn't over in three minutes, you need to play it faster."
