    This taught me more about writing than anything I've ever read or heard before

    Hearing that Milch was taught by Robert Penn Warren, and hearing that “Tell me a story...” passage that Milch later used in season 3 of True Detective- sparkplug stuff

    ....Hah? Could someone explain what he is talking about?

      He's talking about the importance of the personal as more compelling a story and trusting in faith (and by extension, trusting in God) that you will have something to share in "the spirit that gives it rise", as superior to an outline which is the death of reason. Look, I've watched these videos over and over, and it's taken me a long time to understand even part of it. I'm no grad student, all I have is a bachelor's, but he is clearly sharing and teaching things only grad students, or tenured professors, could hope to understand as an underlying reason for writing. If we surrender to it, I mean as writers, then.... well you figure it out. I hate anti-narrative exposition and my analysis probably sucks. good luck.
