His theory may apply to much of non fiction, but none of what Szabo says is relevant to fiction, literary or otherwise. You can't create imaginary worlds in short paragraphs or bullet points.

By the way, great find! Thanks for posting. It's always good to read Szabo. I have never read this before.

I wish he would publish more. I read this one a long time ago, and it made me feel less guilty for not always finishing books. Now, with most books, I read the intro, and a few other selected chapters. 😎

I can't relate. I have always seen reading as a fun activity. I often am sorry when a book ends. I'm also a boomer, so that probably has something to do with it. I had less sources of information growing up.
