The Little Black Book of Stories

Since the beginning people have wondered where stories come from. Are the things we tell ourselves to better comprehend our universe simply myth and the most beautiful way to unravel an explanation for the grand tapestry of connections we see and live each day, or is there more to it? Are they mind-maps incorporating everything we are and have been with everywhere we have yet to discover? Is the writer a conduit, a vessel for the story to come through, or do they stitch them into whole cloth by pulling various threads of imaginings together into tapestry and make something real out of nothingness? Tommy is only six years old, but he’s never wondered once. He knows where stories come from: the little black book under his bed.
