GENRE: A debut novel about trying to write a debut novel. That’s a genre, right?
MEET SLATER BROWN, FICTIONAL NOVELIST: “He’d come to San Francisco expressly for the purpose of writing something that would last forever. Only he didn’t feel he could share this personal ambition with just anyone. They would think what? That he was a fruitcake! That he had lost contact with reality? It was a tricky situation, having a plan you couldn’t share.

In the evenings he would reread what he’d written by the bar’s dim light. Nobody paid him a scintilla of attention.”
