![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sometimes while thinking about my story, or that of a character’s, I falter. And then bridge that myth to everyday life. I’ve learned how we all live within myth, and one of the keys to meaningful living – and good writing – is to find that myth playing out within us, or within a character. Which is why we all have a unique story to tell. “We are of our own making,” my mother always lectured. The wealth of learning evoked in such a small culture (can we say that – a small culture?) will continue to feed me and my writing throughout this life and perhaps others. It made for a real small growing up environment, but if you put a bell-jar over that place you’d come to understand every kind of conflict! Simply to say, people are complex, relationships even more so. It was my good fortune to have been born and raised in an outport of 12 houses, and where we were only allowed to talk to six of those. ![]()
