Ernest Hemingway's Text Messages
Ernest Hemingway gets a smartphone. His first text to his editor:
"Book done. Good. Send money."
Editor replies: "Can you elaborate on the themes?"
Hemingway: "No."
Editor: "At least tell me the word count?"
Hemingway: "Enough. Too many, maybe. Cut some. Still good."
Editor: "Ernest, this is a 600-page manuscript."
Hemingway: "Was 800. You're welcome."
Editor: "Can we schedule a call to discuss?"
Hemingway: "The phone rang. He answered. They talked. It was fine."
Editor: "...Did you just narrate our conversation?"
Hemingway: "Yes. It was true. All true things are worth narrating."
