A friend shared a quote today that adequately sums up my feelings on any one of my stories. If--at the end of this writing journey--I could call myself half the writer that Alice Munro is, I would consider myself lucky.
“I want my stories to be something about life that causes people to say, not, oh, isn’t that the truth, but to feel some kind of reward from the writing, and that doesn’t mean that it has to be a happy ending or anything, but just that everything the story tells moves the reader in such a way that you feel you are a different person when you finish.” – Alice Munro
