“Storytelling … not just a clever sharing of mind alone, but rather a sharing of heart and spirit.”
~ Ruth Sawyer, The Way of the Storyteller

Women in Story
Scheherazade: Queen of the Storytellers, is the framing story of the 1001 Nights collection of tales, sometimes known as the Arabian Nights. Anne fell in love with the famed narrator when she began her storytelling journey.
Truth Telling
“Our nation must have the courage to own the truth, to heal the wounds of its past so that we can move on together at peace with ourselves.”
Anne was first introduced to the notion of Truth Telling as it applied in East Timor. This followed years after the murder of her brother, Tony Stewart in Balibo East Timor on the 16th October 1975. With ongoing connections, Anne paid attention to The Commission for Reception, Truth and Reconciliation established around 2001 in East Timor.
