Finally watching Gone Girl. Loved all of Gillian Flynn’s books, but for some reason(s) this much-favorited movie turned me off so I’ve never gotten through it all the way.
Anyway … thinking a lot about the things this character forges, and the meaning of the word: FORGE.
The criminal stories and dark fantasies writing plays roles in. How being “a voracious reader” sometimes functions to tip people off that a character is a villain.
Stories and diaries and cheap disposable pens.
All of the clues in the writing. All of the pleasures.
All of the sharp effortful details normal people fail to appreciate until they are long gone.
