Told in their own words

Stories

Stories live here when this community chooses to put them here. None are shared yet. When they are, they sit under the teller's own consent, held on Empathy Ledger.

Who the story belongs to, the teller decides, every time

  • A story can be an individual's, theirs alone to share.
  • It can be a family's, shared with the family's say-so.
  • It can be a kinship group's, held by that group.
  • It can be the community's, carried by the community.
  • Or it can be public, open to anyone.

The teller chooses which, every time, and can change it later.
