But then the course of events takes no account of verisimilitude. Fiction has to be probable

About This Quote

This is a quote from the book "Fifty Shades of Grey." The author, E. L. James, was making a statement about how fiction should be based on what would happen if it were really happening to someone. Fiction should be based on truth, but not have to have the truth be exactly what happened.

With fiction, however, there are no rules. The writer can create whatever they want to create for their story.
