quick question about PULP FICTION (screenplay credits)

[Buttmunker]

We all know that Quentin Tarantino writes a great screenplay. However, the screenplay for Pulp Fiction shares the credit with Roger Avary.

What were Avary's contributions to the script?

What's weird is that Avary is only credited for stories, when's it pretty clear that he actually cowrote the script. I mean the famous Chris Walken monologue is Avary's work.

Tarantino wanted a "written and directed by" credit, so he somehow convinced Avary to accept a "story by" co-credit, even though Avary did indeed write some of the actual script.
