We Make Sense of our Lives through Stories – Heather Webb QUOTES FOR WRITERS

History isn’t just a series of bygone eras, littered with a mélange of fascinating and horrific events and people. It’s a detailed map of who we are and what we stand for both as an individual, and as a society. History is also a window into our future… We need a way to relate to those of the past, in the most human way possible. This is done through stories. It’s how we make sense of our lives and emotions.
