  5. Food for thought • We’re all in this together • Writing style is more concise than previous process - call on your Hemingways to help with style – but rely on the Prousts for detail • Think of the visiting team as a team of grant reviewers “After Proust there are certain things that simply cannot be done again.” Francoise Sagan “I think that Hemingway made real discoveries about the use of language in his first novel, … I admired the way he made drunk people talk.” Evelyn Waugh
