Summary Focuses on how writers have established successful literary reputations without having appeared in mass-circulation magazines. Highlights the role of university presses in the success of many contemporary writers; the generally uncommitted and indifferent attitudes of most of the mass-circulation publishing houses; and the importance of prizes that various organizations award annually, and the influential anthologies in which these prizewinning stories appear.
