This is the essence of the transaction between storyteller and audience. The 'true'
story is not the one that exists in my mind; it is certainly not the written words
on the bound paper that you hold in your hands. The story in my mind is nothing but
a hope; the text of the story is the tool I created in order to try to make that
hope a reality. The story itself, the true story, is the one that the audience
members create in their minds, guided and shaped by my text, but then transformed,
elucidated, expanded, edited, and clarified by their own experience, their own
desires, their own hopes and fears.
