Perry, Portland fiction writer and ex-newspaperman, aat in hia room at the Eugene hotel smok ing a straight black pipe. It wee Just before noon and he was drumming on a typewriter on a small table before him; a eheet of paper, half covered with writing was in the machine. He had finished his story for that week and waa pounding out a new idea. His blond hair waa rum- Eled, his purple dressing gown awry) e had been thinking. , . "I write every morning for at least xour noure, saia air. ferry, "ana mat means approximately lzoo to 1600 "words a day. That gives me a story or more a week and the week end to think un an idea to start on on Monday. I'm working on a yarn now bdoui a reuow wno naa aeaaea to oe a criminal" Tells Wsele Stary He told the whole story. His pipe wae forgotten aa he warmed np on hia yarn. He was all enthusiasm for his work. When he had finished his tale he glanced at his watch. It waa noon. He got up, took off his purple dress ing gown, slicked down his blond hair. All this time he waa talking and smoking his pipe. "At first I did have some trouble breaking into the field of fiction," Mr. Perry admitted. "I had had the idea of writing for magatlnes for a long time, and aa It happened the first article I wrote waa accepted. It wasn't fiction though. It was an ar ticle for "Outdoor Life.' At that time I was working on the Morning Ore gonian in Portland so I didn't have very much time to devote to writing stories. That acceptance of my ayry was iu uie impetus i neeuea. Wrote as Hobbv "After that I read all the mags sines I could get hold of. I would read them on the atreet cars to snd from work. I wrote etoriea as a hobby, but of course with the idea of selling them if nosslble. I studied the tvDes of stories snd worked on plots for au oi two years Detore i oegan send ing my stories out. At first every thing came right back at me, but now I'm selling all the stuff I can write." Mr. Perry laughed as he recalled what he considered a good one on the editors. "I had written what I thought waa a peach of a yarn, and it bad been returned to me. After my atorlea had been selling I took that yarn, changed the title and without typing It over sent It in again. J got a letter from the editor saying tost I had made a wonderful revision and that he had raised my rate on that story.-' - He stopped to refill his pips. Takes Practice "I couldn't write a decent news story when I left college." he said candidly. "Since leaving school I have worked on about eight different newspapers, as reporter, on tne aeaa, and In the advertising: departments. It takes nractlee to write as well as to do anything else. I really believe tnat u s man wrote nve snort stones, and sent each of them out five times, he would break Into the fiction Meld. I aav that, for if he had the perse verance to write five stories he would be so taken up with writing stories that hs could not quit."
