Quote

My one purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others.

My life is storytelling. I believe in stories, in their incredible power to keep people alive, to keep the living alive, and the dead.

My purpose as a writer is to communicate in such a way as to challenge the thinking of readers and touch their hearts.

In any situation that calls for you to persuade, convince or manage someone or a group of people to do something, the ability to tell a purposeful story will be your secret sauce. Telling to win through purposeful stories is situation, industry, gender, demographic, and psychographic-agnostic. It's an all-purpose, everyone wins tool.

The purpose of narrative is to present us with complexity and ambiguity.

My purpose is to teach and demonstrate what is possible. To demonstrate love of God and good. Remember what my role is as a woman: to be... good. My role as a mother: to teach, support and nurture my offspring. My role as a grandmother: to remind everybody - right where you are, God is.

What one's goal should be is just to become a better writer and to tell different kinds of stories.
