The Sundry Basket—Surprise, Vulnerability, Risk, Tokenism, Rejection

Following Matt's sitting-in on Tim's creative writing class, Tim, Matt, and Eric have a lengthy discussion on a variety of topics, from developing surprise in written work to vulnerability as a requisite sauce for quality. Beyond that, they touch on risk in writing, what it's like and whether it's possible to write 'for a prize', dealing with rejection and avoiding tokenism, and being white, male, and grown-up about it.
