Cold is the storyteller's church. It is the way revenge is best served; the way a war was fought; the way a story should be told. Join fiction writer, essayist, and blogger, Victoria Dougherty, to ponder the creative life, and endeavor to look at the stories we tell and the stories we live with a cold eye, but never a cold heart.
