Why I Like to Write Fantasy
Nov. 14th, 2006 07:31 pmBecause I can take any of the mythological whatever involved, and make them into metaphors for something else. Supernatural metaphors are flexible, and that's part of why I always find it so funny to see people arguing about what's "authentic" for vampires/zombies/werewolves/whatever. There is no real and unique them, there's just what we choose to project on them and turn them into. Like play-doh.
