Chuck Palahniuk On Story

by Parveen Kaler

I bookmarked this video on YouTube earlier.  But really, it deserves a full post.

We know that money comes and goes.  We know that possessions become a burden.  They really become a burden.  But story, story is so valuable and is painless to carry with us and it’s something that we share.  And the pixies were pure story.  And my grandparents, at this point, are pure story.  Because six months after my grandmother died my grandfather died.  And I would venture that ultimately the most important things in your life are going to be stories.
