I'll Go First (Hella's Story)

I’m Hella Rader—divorced, middle-aged, childless (no cat) lady, the first American of my family, the only daughter born to German immigrant parents, and a full-time writer. The Stories That Sparkle is the space I created for women you have never heard of and could easily pass on the street to share, in their own voices, the intricacies of their stories about starting over in life, building community, inhabiting their bodies and more. With a good sense of humor, open heart and open mind, I let my curiosity lead the way as I explore the very human complexity in others and, in the process, in myself. Because together, we bring light into dark places.
