Description or summary of the audiobook: Ron Carlson has been praised as 'a master of the short story' (Booklist). In this essay collection, Ron Carlson Writes a Story, he offers a full range of notes and gives rare insight into a veteran writer's process by inviting the reader to watch over his shoulder as he creates the short story 'The Governor's Ball.''This is a story of a story' he begins, and proceeds to offer practical advice for creating a great story, from the first glimmer of an idea to the final sentence. Carlson urges the writer to refuse the outside distractions-a second cup of coffee, a troll through the dictionary-and attend to the necessity of uncertainty, the pleasures of an unfolding story.'The Governor's Ball'-included in its entirety-serves as a fascinating illustration of the detailed anatomy of a short story.
