Ep. 11 - My Writing Process

The stories before they become stories
4
3

I’m constantly on the lookout for new stories to write about. Because I write personal essays, I’m looking for an event that triggers an emotional response from me. Without the emotional response, it’s an anecdote. That anecdote might be part of a larger story, but it’s not the story itself.

Listener’s Note: I reference my book, A Paper Orchestra.
