You see a brand new book, perfectly white pages. The binding perfect. The glue isn't even cracked. No bent corners. It looks too new. It assaults our senses and we want, so very much, just to touch it. To leave a smudge, a finger print - anything! Anything that would give this thing character! Same with a desk! A table! Everything!
You can't have a story that's clean, it needs to have a smudge, a dent - a crack even. Now you're not just weak of body, but weak of character as well!
