Thalia snags Nia’s readers and squints at the screen. “Language… I just luuuuv words. Liiii-sen up! ‘A storyteller makes up things to help other people; a liar makes up things to help himself,’ said — Daniel Wallace.” “Our friend Julie used to make up stories to tell her kids on the long drive between Wisconsin and their Minnesota farm… stories starring Wheatie and Alfredo.” Calliope smiles at the memory of
‘A storyteller makes up things to help other people; a liar makes up things to help himself.’
I like it, but sometimes we tell stories without regard to what others get out of it — we just need to let them out. (Also applies to poetry. Thoughtful essays, not so much, in my experience.) If someone else gets something out of them, that's just bonus points. 😊

Your reference back to my stories made me reminisce and smile. You are a wonderful storyteller who is always helping people! ❤️

I agree with Cal’s statement! I’m certain our favorite bloggarina of the 3MM love letters actually does as Cal described. We are the lucky ones. 🙏🏽
