Story Crafters: Stephen Kiernan PDF Print E-mail

stephenkiernanThe Pleasures of Story Hunting
Wednesday, May 30 at 6:30 pm. Perhaps the only thing greater than our desire to tell stories is the world's appetite to hear them. The role of journalist is often to serve as a conduit, seeking great stories and retelling them to a wider audience. Kiernan will discuss his experiences with the pleasures of hunting for stories and the gratifications from sharing the best ones.
