"I have found Stories to be very friendly visitors.
They knock gently on the front door of my heart.
I readily let them in that front door.
Then I give them one the best seats in the house.
And pretty soon they're telling me things--things
about me and the way I live and love in this world.
Oh, if we could only find a way to speak in Story more often."

Melea J. Brock writes and tells stories for the child inside everyone--from the swaggering youth trying desperately to convince us--and himself--that he's all grown up, to the elder in our midst whose age might cause us to expect her to have all the answers. Each of us--busy office worker, over-committed mom or dad, distracted college student and electronic age child--has a place deep inside that responds when Melea's many voices weave ancient folk tales, true-life stories and her own original stories. |
