Happy New Year! This week’s story is told by Joe Holland, a San Diego-based writer. He deftly captures the complicated nature of family in this story based on the theme “Siblings.”

We are looking forward to 2016 and a new year of storytelling. We’ll kick it off in San Diego on Tuesday, 12 January, and in Denver on Wednesday, 20 January, with the theme “Promise.” We have posted all of our themes for the upcoming year, which you can find on our Events page. Take a look and get in touch if you’d like to join the roster of storytellers this year.
