Totally agree. I don't know that time or even refinement is what makes a great story. Yeah, the certainly don't hurt, but if you tell me the most amazing story

  I wonder if there's opportunity for a publisher to specialize in this (or create a series). I will ask them! Here's the idea: they sit down/have a long call with an interesting character, talk with them extensively, get them to type out some further stories, then the publisher does all the work of making it readable without killing the subject's voice. PeepCode and Tekpub do something like this in the screencasting world where they sit with respected developers and bash through a project and talk about tools for an hour or two. I've not seen it done in the written word other than, perhaps, feature articles for magazines.
