True, and these are often the writers with the most verbose narratives and poorer continuity throughout their stories.There are quite a few authors here who look down on anything that doesn't have three Lit pages of background and character development. Who imply that their stories have more merit than strokers simply because their characters arewhinyconflicted and show growth.
They rarely seem to engage in discussions about styles and quality, however, beyond stating that longer is better.
I don't believe that the length matters as much as having an understanding of, and an appreciation for literary elements and devices.
A lot of writers here employ them, but do so in ways that readers can't really appreciate.
