An intrinsic part of the human condition and experience. Stories told through the oral tradition, honored those that came before us as well as explore our creativity and amaze audiences. With stories we’ve developed culture, traditions, learned history, shared perspectives, taught others, found parallels to our world, explored the future, inspired people to become better than they were before and almost anything else we can think of. Even with the history of it and the scholars who would define and designate what a story is and isn’t, we still need to define things for ourselves. So… we write.
