“this is still the most amazing thing to me. that writing fiction continues to feel more like finding than inventing. when i’m writing, i know immediately whether it’s right or wrong. whether i’m telling the true story or a false version of it.”
I love this but I can’t say it with as much confidence. Often it is immediately clear but sometimes it is not so obvious.
well, i didn't mean to suggest it was without struggle either. there's that too for sure. but i think that, even if only in retrospect, i can definitely tell when at least a part of me knew it was wrong. maybe this is a more nuanced way of putting it. it's not like i have some super power.

I can relate to that. And sometimes being unsure is its own sign, but occasionally it’s only that we haven’t yet understood the greater context.
