In a nutshell, what we do at our meet-ups is savour and talk about ONE short story of note in “real time”, aloud. Each month, Megg and Steve suggest a volume of short stories which they think the group might enjoy reading. At the meet-up one of the facilitators kicks things off by reading the first few paragraphs of the chosen story. The reader then pauses and the group discusses anything that feels pertinent in that moment with regard to the story or their experience of it. The facilitator will …

Let the journey to Pandora begin; the question is- how do we all try to fix and heal the world? it seems an impossible task. Children are killing children and there seems to be an imbalance in the world as a whole. It seems that to heal the world we have to try to heal the community, to heal the community it seems we have to try to heal our families, to heal our families it seems we have to heal ourselves. Ghandi said," As Human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the …
