Last night I talked with
Karen Land about story and story
telling, about the potential difference between fact and truth, and about the
expectation for well told stories here in rural Montana.
Mary Clearman Blew
refers to the idea of a “Western” story when she recounts an often-told tale of
a historic encounter between two locals. She suspects the story has been embroidered.
I can only think that means it is stitched with care.
