Archetypal source story

Thursday, 02 October, 2003

... I tend to believe that every writer has one, single, archetypal source story. You inform it and it informs you. If you're a writer, depending on how clever you are, and how big a net your particular story casts, the stories you write are more or less recognizable reworkings of your one story.
