Everyone sucks until they don’t. That’s the arc of every good story.
Everybody’s got a story. A beginning. A middle. An end. Of course, there’s the story people tell you. And then there’s the truth.
Every true crime story is actually true for someone.
Every story needs a memorable detail.
Every novel is a struggle between the writer and the story, and the writer always tried to hold on, but at a certain point, he had to let go and let the story tell itself.
A story is only words. Belief in story, much more valuable.[to Terry]
A person deserves to tell their own story, however true, however not.
