Capital "W" Writing

Hank over on storyboard: There just seems to be this – not overwriting – it's almost like someone is telling you a great story on the way to church, and then we get to church and they shut up, or they kind of whisper it to you instead. Or it becomes an incantation. I feel like a lot of stories are written from that high point, not from the pulpit, but from the feeling that people are in sacred space and they're too afraid of violating the space.
A lot of narrative stories have that hush of seriousness about them. That feels like capital "W" writing to me. They are honoring all the narrative or feature stories about serious or weighty or disturbing subject matter that came before, so therefore there's going to be that mood. It's too dramatic or liturgical.
