one exclamation point

She is a master storyteller, and it's one of the greatest things about claiming to be a writer. The people you get to hang out with tell great stories. You know the ones. We all lean in close because she never seems to raise her voice. Then as something happens and she jumps at you in the very exact correct amount of one exclamation point. A softly but quickly spoken !.

(Maybe she didn't jump, but that's definitely what we did.)


Today I am grateful to work and love alongside storytellers, to follow their lead.
