This one is sooooooo tasty! Thank you, Scott. You just filled all the space underneath the tree with this one nugget of wisdom.

I love this quote. I try to think about it with every character, every plot point, every scene. It speaks to how stories have multiple layers of meaning, how dialogue has subtext, how actions have deeper intentions, how characters can don 'masks' from scene to scene, relationship to relationship. So many riches to be found in our stories... if we dig for them.
