James HynesSummary: Time and place are critical in most recent fiction, so today's writer must know how to evoke a setting. But, as with so many techniques in writing, setting exists along a continuum, from the richly detailed (as in Bleak House) to just a few sparse details (as in Pride and Prejudice). Find out when - and how much - to describe your story's setting.
