User talk:LaineNichols/Short story collection

= Instructor comments 4.24.2020 = You've done great work here; the sections you've added (Composition of, History of, Uses for, Notable Examples) are each well-sourced, well-structured, and in strong encyclopedic style. You do an especially nice job synthesizing in the "Composition of" section.

Really my only revision suggestions are local, sentence-level things at this point:

You say, "From the producer side, short story collections are helpful to authors looking to publish. Gathering groups of stories together can be economic." Economic for whom? Helpful to authors in what sense?

You say, "Short story collections have their roots in medieval framed tale collections, growing into the post-modern narratives of the 1900s." I'm curious what makes a short story collection "post-modern," how that's played out in short story collections to date. Might be worth explaining "frame tale" or at least linking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_story

You say, "However, newer, more bite-sized short story collections might be a good way for students to get the depth of exposure they need while not overwhelming them." Is this something one of your sources suggested? Worth citing/attributing if so. Otherwise, if it's your interpretation, then although I agree it's not encyclopedic and therefore should probably be deleted.
