a writer's writer

Sur MoorishGirl aujourd'hui, on cite Daniel Handler qui nous "vend" Jim Shepard, a writer's writer:

As I told the crowd that night, I want you to buy a book by Jim Shepard and read it, and if you don't like it come to me. I'll give you your money back and then I'll kick your ass.

Avouons que c'est convaincant.
