“When I see a news story on a site, about a movie that I'm interested in, it's like the mouse going for the pleasure button and I click it. But then, when I see the movie, it's like, "Oh, I would have enjoyed the movie that much more, if I hadn't known that."” IfsStoriesPleasureKnownNewsEnjoyedButtonsSiteMiceClicksNews Stories Author:Rian Johnson
“I love story-writing because I can (more or less, on occasion) actually DO it. That's really the truth. I like the idea that a story is sort of a site for making cool language effects - a site for celebrating language, and, therefore, the world. And the brevity is part of the challenge. I like stories because I get them - I know how to make beauty, or something like beauty, in that mode.” KnowsWorldWritingI CanIdeasStoriesLanguageChallengesKnow HowEffectsLove StoryCelebrateOccasionsSiteBecause I CanBrevityStory Writing Author:George Saunders
