Jarred McGinnis's Wall

Jack Nelson – Dec 03, 2009

Quite a CV, sir; but I smiled at your reason why. A hunch: if writing had the discipline of performance, it very well would get better (at least some of it would). I can tell there a mean efficiency about you -- like a hit man sitting down for breakfast in a different city the day after his target just simply dies. No strings, not clues, no reason -- just outcomes.
