Stories and Stanza

Welcome to Stories and Stanza! I am happy to have you here. I am a writer, and I created this podcast to bring out the real stories that make life as beautiful as poetry. I’ll take you on a journey through the human experience, sharing stories and conversations to uplift your spirit. Whether you’re a lover of literature, a writer, or simply someone who enjoys a good story, ”Stories and Stanza” is the place for you. I am working in three main segments - In Author’s Chair (discussion with authors), Fail With Me (failure and emotional intelligence), and Stories from Past (history).
