I'm a storyteller. That's what I do. I tell stories in my novels and in my conversations and in my poetry.
I think storytelling is one of the most important arts in the world. It's through stories that we understand ourselves, our history, our identity, our purpose, our future. People have connected to others with stories. They have healed their pain through stories. They have searched for salvation within stories. They have believed in and died for stories.
As you can see, I take the job rather seriously.
So after a lot of thought, I've decided to use this blog as a way to explore the power of storytelling. I'm going to talk about my experiences with stories - hearing them and telling them and being in them. At the same time I'm going to let you know about my journey of writing stories. As an author and speaker my mission is to inspire others and motivate them to learn and explore. With such a mission, I've had the most incredible experiences around the country with people of all backgrounds. I'll be sharing those experiences with you here.
Stay tuned.
