We Are All Made of Stories with Ellie Royce Podcast artwork

Stories, stories, stories. Your story. My story. OUR story. We read them watch them, hear them, LIVE them. I write stories, mainly for kids (but hey, anyone is allowed to read them!) I help people find their stories - especially but not only - older people. I share stories and stories about stories, because they weave us into families, communities and cultures, because they are the way we make meaning out of our world, and because they bring me joy. I hope they bring you joy too. See, I can't tell you how to live your life, but I can share a story- and maybe it's just the one you need. We are ALL made of stories… what’s yours?
