People often ask me what the 'best' stories ever written are, as if I could ever know, but I want to talk about the stories that stay with us, that change how we look at ourselves and the world. Here are 7 (ish) of mine.

Call me cheesey, but I would like to say that your videos and first book on writing and worldbuilding (second is hopefully sat under a tree right now) have changed my life. They have tought me to think about what stories are on a level which is deeper thatn 'a story is a series of events'. Having seen them, I feel more able to understand the themes and characters that I see in books. Furthermore, I have learned a (basic) ability from them to see how I interperate the world around us as a tory or a set of stories, and more importantly, the way people around me also interperate the world around them as storiws. This has immensly helped me connect empathetically with people, which makes me surprised to hear you say that you struggle to connect with people emathetically. But that's just my take on your content, merry christmas.
