@hannahtindle This assumes writers published by the Manhattan media machine in the 90s were actually "the best," and not members of a few well-connected cliques. Yes, things change, and writers today WILL need to stand out, in new ways. That's the challenge.

@clairlemon It's simply bad policy to accuse someone of something without evidence. Already too much of that going on. And sorry, having very long nails-- a style in some circles in America-- is not evidence of steroids. Or: you're reaching.

Just thinking: antisemitism, like racism, is ridiculous esp in USA. Jewish people have been essential contributors to American culture, to everything we all take for granted. From a huge role in pop (and classical) music, to the very creation of Hollywood. To a host of writers.
