Welcome to BOBBIE WRITES thoughtful monthly essays exploring life, creativity, compelling story telling.

Each month a new story will be added.

Telling stories is a way for me to connect with others and let them know they are not alone. when you share your thoughts with me, you remind me that I'm not alone either.

Together, we complete the story.
