00:00What would you say to encourage them to pick up their pen and start writing?
00:03Well, a story is never too quiet, you know, too quiet or too broken to matter, as is a
00:08person, you know, is never too broken or too quiet to matter.
00:11And I think the biggest thing is that, you know, the stories that we think are the smallest
00:16often end up being the ones that help people the most and the ones that people needed to
00:21hear the most.
00:22And I think that, you know, I would have to say once, you know, you start writing, just
00:27be honest as you're writing and don't write for an audience, don't write for approval,
00:31just write for yourself.
00:32You know what I mean?
00:33And once you can put that first truth on a page, the rest kind of just unfolds.
00:38But the power isn't in having a perfect story.
00:40It's about having the courage to tell, you know, the real one with all the good and the
00:45bad in it.
