About this book
“The stories editors buy and why” by Jean Wick is an anthology and editors’ market guide written in the early 20th century. It gathers notable American magazine short stories alongside candid editor statements about why those stories were purchased, giving practical insight into taste, technique, and the varied needs of different publications. The opening of the volume first presents a prefatory note that champions the American short story and details how editors shape markets, what different magazines seek, how technique flexes to subject and outlet, and how agents can aid writers (including a defense of agents from an editor’s letter).
