is its own story. If taken
independently it might be
independently poignant,
it could be a life-changing
narrative (metaphorically),
but if it doesn’t in some way
work with all of the other parts
of the story within which it is
just one aspect, i mean, if it
acts too tangential to the
sum of the rest of the story,
or in a way that detracts, well,
that doesn’t necessarily mean
that the story, on the whole,
is not an award-winning story.
And yet who gives a singular
award for the arc of a story?
