The Slow Fiction Movement!


Have you heard of the slow food movement? People take the time to cook a meal and savor it with loved ones. How about the locvore movement (working to eat as many local products as possible)? Well, I am ready to launch the Slow Fiction Movement! In this movement writers will not rush to do anything. Action will take place in novels in its own sweet time. Publication will happen when it does and queries will be sent without haste or the need for an immediate reply. Readers will savor the written word at a leisurely pace and all of us will enjoy the process more. Are you in? Let's do this!
