Aristotle said there are only seven archetypal plotlines. That may be, but the stories we, in all of our cultures and all of our races, have been telling since the day we learned to talk are endless.
As with all forms of life and creative expression, every story begins with a seed. A kernel, a tiny little singularity that sparks a story into life. Those who catch these fleeting seeds and hold them in their hands while they bloom into flowers... are called writers.
These are the seeds I have held in my hands until they grew roots and blossomed into the stories they are today. They are now yours.
