The Rule Of Law Never Stopped “Being”; We Stopped Enforcing It…
That’s an important framing. We’ve watched Donald Trump and the Republican Party violate the rule of law with impunity. They act as if the rule of law didn’t exist anymore. We have acted the same way — like the rule of law had ceased “to be”. That’s not true. It’s a matter of perspective. We’re…

If you want to have a shot at being a successful storyteller, you need to have a better grasp of how people actually tick than most other people. Storytellers who don’t get human beings right are soon employed doing other things — storytelling being out of their range. As any reader or audience member can…
