“Humans are not ideally set up to understand logic; they are ideally set up to understand stories.” Roger C. Schank, Cognitive Scientist
This has been an extremely busy few months. However, I did want to share one last blog post this year. Barry and I took a Thanksgiving trip to be with family in the Seattle area. Along the way we stopped in Idaho to chat with one of my Story-Power guests, Lisa Jensen, episode 85 about her new writing project. Lisa, you might remember is a ghost writer, novelist and now screenwriter. We had a lovely conversation. I hope you’ll take a listen and go buy Lisa’s book, published under the pen name, Maris Parker, Cedar Ridge. It’s a cosy romance which is set in Wyoming.
While we were in the Seattle area, I had a conversation with another podcast guest, Christine Herbert, Story-Power episode 81 about her book The Color of the Elephant, which is about her time in the Peace Corps from 2004 – 2006. Christine calls her writing, her torture hobby. However, she has written two children’s books since she and I chatted in 2023, and she’s working on a novel, so it must be a rewarding hobby. I loved The Color of the Elephant as you will hear as we talk about it during our conversation. It’s a great book club pick.
Thanks for reading and listening. Have a wonderful holiday season! See you in 2025.
