“...as soon as I started thinking about what faith might mean for certain characters, it helped shape who they became. I was raised agnostic, but I’ve always been interested in the way people’s faith can shape who they are—when someone leans toward God and when they lean away from God.”

'The way that everybody’s clicked together has just been so amazing because everyone’s from different backgrounds, different experience levels, and different passions.' - We’re always on the hunt for a good story, and what better place to look than in our own neighbourhood. We had a chat with Danielle from @gather.northbridge a specialty coffee house serving wholesome food on Lake Street. - Read on from our website!
This is Karen Escobar! We can always count on her to step in to any situation with confidence and poise. While interning at the Centre for Stories, Karen worked on a story collection project called, 'Australian and more' a series that explores the dissonance and delights of an individual straddling two cultures in Western Australia’s current social atmosphere. It's pretty spectacular. You can check out her interview, as well as the story collection on our website. Happy reading! 💜

“I believe there are fundamental questions that consume so many children of survivors. They relate to the themes untangled in the collection but cannot yield answers: ‘could I have survived what my parents survived?’ and, ‘If the Holocaust had never happened and, consequently, my parents had never met, does that mean I owe my life to this catastrophe?’” - Yvonne Fein is the featured author this fortnight for our 'Between the Lines' interview series. Her latest book, 'Choose Somebody Else' is out with @wilddingopress. Jump on our website now to read her full interview. #centreforstories #betweenthelines #wilddingopress
