Watching from the Minds Eye.
The stories we choose to identify with can show how our minds work as individuals. Stories can aide in changing a daily perspective. Over time, sometimes not much time. The story will write you. Stories can change the truth you know to another type of truth, for better or worse is yet to be seen. I tend to be title driven, if an author can not get their tease on and, tantalize me with a titillating title, why would I gander a look? Accidents Happen..

Dream a Little BIG Dream
A good story must start with something from the heart that helps the individual define limits beyond their own understanding, otherwise it is just a fireworks display with nothing to wonder about, You already know you are the hero. The girl got her guy, the guy got his girl.. only after a massive battle where thousands of innocent bystanders paid the price for both the 'Good” guy and the 'Bad” guy. Sure it can have elements of action, how much does the story pull away from the familial acceptance we all need. How much of it binds us to the hero, for a relatable fantasy. In this scenario the collective is always righteous, by unseen rules. The MC universe strives to make a good Segway. The Joker story in the DC universe has a very exploratory back story. It gets down into the psyche of those that would perform such tasks as the joker did. But everyone's favorite literary figures, William Shakespeare, Homer, Mark Twain, among many others set very high standards. The high standards even within those named are great. Samuel Clemens (Twain) for example was not great at spelling, nor was he perfect in his grammar. While William Shakespeare has some of the most perfect sentence structure ever noted.
