When I’m writing, I usually only include slang that has been around for a while so people can understand what they’re reading when they pick up my books decades from now.

(She’s published 24 novels in 30 years.) But that would mean fiddling with the well-oiled machine that reliably produces such marketable passion. 'The Four Winds' by Kristin Hannah is a captivating, heartbreaking tale of a family who will do anything for each other and everything to survive. the snob in me wonders what this indefatigable author could produce if she endured a little tougher editorial criticism and gave herself a little more time.
