Writing

Whether authors acknowledge it or not, almost all books have a strong amount of wyrd in them. By wyrd I mean fate, providence, destiny, etc. Otherwise most stories would simply be characters wandering around. I happen to believe though, that one of the traits of good writing is the ability to hide the wyrd, to make the coarse of events seem to be plausibly normal. Few authors can achieve this, and it gives their works wonderful re-readability.
