Quotation from Healing Fiction

Soul slows the parade of history, digestion tames appetite, experience coagulates events. I believe that had we more experiencing there would be need for fewer events and the quick passage of time would find a stop.

I used this quotation from James Hillman to preface my collection of stories The Story Ends — The Story Never Ends. It evokes my belief that we live by fiction: we understand our lives as stories that can be revised and retold, stories that transcribe experience.
