Grant Morrison's Story Fu
The Beat quotes Grant Morrison on his crazy-and-getting-crazier approach to storywriting style. When he puts it this way, I sort of dig it. Maybe I shouldn’t. Maybe it’s just spin. But I do. Here:
I’ve always liked to leave resonant spaces, gaps and hints in stories, where readers can do their own work and find clues or insert their own wild and often brilliant theories. I’m often trying to create a kind of fuzzy quantum uncertainty or narrative equivalent of a Rorschach Blot Test effect, which invites interpretation. Lazier readers hate when I do this but fortunately they seem to be in the minority.
