comment Quoting text from a country with different internationalization.
sorry, you're right; I confused the locations of the source (Europe) and the writing (U.S.). I will amend.

comment Preventing genre-savvy second-guessing in murder mysteries
Subvert the trope of the Super-Observant Detective. For example, the detective thinks that because the suspect has a ring indentation on his finger but no ring, he and his wife are at odds, or the man is cheating. And it turns out that the guy is having his ring cleaned, or resized, or it got lost, or he forgot to put it on that morning.

comment How many words (or lines) are long enough to make someone think about his life but short enough to hook lazy readers?
I have thought about how devastated I would be if I were the person who had to place that ad, which makes me grateful that I'm not, and that leads me to think about all the other parts of my life for which I'm grateful. So yes.
