Continuing on my 'cowardice' theme.
Artists are cowards, mostly. 'Artists use lies to tell the truth,' as pointed out by V. And I agree. It makes perfect sense. Isn't fiction or poetry a mean(should there be an s) to conceal your secrets? Artists also want the approval of the audience. Which also makes them sad. Anyway, that would be a different time.
So, I was thinking of different stories that could emerge out of a seed situation, a trigger incident and 'cause and effect' relationship.
It all comes down to understanding the basic setup I guess.
What would be some of the interesting seed situations? A seed situation could be about a person (obviously me) realizing contradictions. Trigger could be his attempt to bring consistency to his behavior. So that's it. A trigger is an agent of change. Experiments. I feel pathetic. And yet relieved.
But I will write a story.
