I am a big proponent of being in touch with everyone even when I do not have a story to ask about.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love how a story can help someone discuss something they otherwise would not.
I love being in touch with my readers and fellow writers! It's just amazing to have such access to people.
I love helping friends, and I like to think I am a good listener and supportive. I'm also just kind of nosy, so it would satisfy my need to know other people's stories.
I just use my life story as a kind of device on which to hang comic observations. It's not my interest or instinct to tell the world anything pertinent about myself or my family.
To share our stories is not only a worthwhile endeavor for the storyteller, but for those who hear our stories and feel less alone because of it.
I write about people in small towns; I don't write about people living in big cities. My kind of storytelling depends upon people that have time to talk to each other.
I was just fascinated with how everyone else in the world lived, and I was interested in telling their story.
I guess when you write a personal story, people feel compelled to share their own stories.
I tell the stories that are of interest to me.
No one touches me when I write my story, unless I hire you to or I allow you to.
