• What really happens is that the story-maker proves a successful 'sub-creator'. He makes a Secondary World which your mind can enter.

The moment disbelief arises, the spell is broken; the magic, or rather art, has failed. You are then out in the Primary World again, looking at the little abortive Secondary World from outside.
