'Like a best friend giving you essential advice. I can’t wait to give this to every writer I know.' - Candice Carty-Williams, author of Queenie.
Why do stories matter? I tell stories to make sense of the world as I see it. The world I have lived and experienced, read about and heard about, and what I want it to be. I tell stories to make sense of myself.
