EVERYONE HAS A STORY

One of the phrases we have been using for years is Everyone Has A Story. We think about it in the context of creative writing, and having a voice in our world no matter who you are. It turns out that story is actually hard wired into our brains, we all have a Narrator in our heads. It’s kind of mindblowing to think about the power of a story and how we construct narratives of everything.

Cognitive Neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga, a pioneer in the study of hemispheric (left vs. right brain) specialization describes ”the Interpreter” – a left hemisphere function that organizes our memories into plausible stories. The Interpreter may help to explain our species’ profound relationship with storytelling.”
