I think the reason writers are so weird about their wips is because explaining a story before it's done is like showing someone a dream. it made total sense five seconds ago. it was vivid and real and it meant something. now you're saying the words out loud and watching the other person's face and the whole thing is just. evaporating. "it's about a woman who...okay there's also a house..." and the dream is gone. you killed it by looking at it. don't tell anyone about your wip.
