This essay is very old but I watched “The Iron Claw” over the holidays and it sent me into a rage about stories and the way we tell them and reminded me of what I wrote in this piece. So, if you’ve already read this, move along :) If not, this is Part 1 of a new series about fiction, stories and dreaming.

p.s. the audio crackles. I still haven’t bought a fancy mic/podcast set. Perhaps one day! For now, pretend I am FDR and these are fireside chats and that this is the best audio quality the 30’s have ever seen!
