As this is a work in progress, I would like to solicit thoughts and opinions from you as to how litfic should distinguish itself from other communities out there. Here are my initial thoughts

Hi! This looks like it will be a great community, so here I am. :-)

Your list is impressive. Thinking of writers off the top of my head, though...hmmm...John Cheever, E.L. Doctorow...and I can't remember if Mary Gaitksill was on there or not... :-D

welcome! yeah, it feels nice to start something and see what happens. looking forward to your contributions. i read at a steady pace, so i'll be posting thoughts on books every couple of weeks, and any other news that seems to be of interest. i'm adding these writers to the list now. i can't believe i forgot john cheever. :)
