Working with the stories

I work with the stories in different ways.  I transcribe, re-read, select, re-tell, include more detail, transpose, rearrange, cross-reference, re-write, write, learn from, write, question...

This is an example of a story at work, in the process of taking shape.
In the midst of all this working, my participants remain at the heart of the process.  I am grateful for their generosity in sharing their stories and humbled by their welcome, positive response and openness. 
Writing stories is a learning process.
