I was watching random clips from theradbrad's channel and it was on an episode of Alan Wake's American Nightmare that was showing one of the manuscript pages that really got me. The title of it was called 'The Nature of Stories':
Stories come naturally to us. We can't help it. There are many different worlds, many competing realities within our heads, fueled by books, television, even barely remembered childhood tales. There's an endless supply of fictional concepts more familiar to us than anything or anyone real. We have a far greater connection to the fictional characters we know and love than the random people we pass on the street. Our destinies and inspirations are shaped by lies, myths and fables.
After reading this, I couldn't agree more. If you've ever created a character and story, you'll probably understand the statement being made here.
