Every well-promoted First Novel includes notes of adulation, on the jacket, for the previously published book of short stories. The second-best-promoted ones talk about the short story competitions that the author won prior to publication.

I missed the Zoetrope Story deadline, while freaking out about my cat. Merde.

No one volunteers to test it – they pay to learn what their maximum pain threshhold is.
