Storytelling
Embrace life around you, the good and bad, the euphoric, and the tragic. Get out of your comfort zone, say yes to experience new things, read, laugh, eat, drink, make connections—this is all fodder for storytelling.
A sunset can correct a day gone awry.
A beautiful art.
Writing is mostly an author’s mind trying to make sense of the chaos, the love, and the tragedy we witness in this life, coupled with a desperate attempt to turn it into an account or story that is relatable to the reader and leaves them with a sence of intrigue, euphoria, or empathy—further creating a connection to community. To touch another’s soul through the written word, that is the goal.
We all have a story to tell. You know the ones—lying in the depths, barely breathing, but still casting an elongated shadow across your world.
