I think in stories. Teach in stories. Make sense of the world through story.

 

​Stories invite us into the lives of others, to discover what we share, and to practice empathy and love. They also ask something harder of us: the willingness to encounter painful truths, to stay with what unsettles us, and to let another person's story change what we thought we knew.

​

I write because I believe that stories can do all of this. They can reveal what is hidden, complicate what we believe, and sometimes, if we are willing, heal our wounds.

​​

​I am still learning how to stay with a story as it unfolds.
