I Love Storytelling. If You Strip All The Bits Away, What You'll Find At The Center Is A Storyteller. As I Warm To My Career And Love It More, I Have A Sense That Storytelling Is Healing, In Many Ways. You Can Reach An Audience And Heal, And By Heal, I Mean Entertain And Provoke. It's A Wonderful Life.
