Tonight’s a Great Night for Storytelling

By Every Family's Got One Founder -- Barbara Herel Tonight, the 2019 cast of Every Family’s Got One takes the stage at My Father’s Place to tell their family stories.

EFGO Writers Workshop: It was great!

By Every Family's Got One Founder -- Barbara Herel Image from rawpixel.com Last Sunday, the cast of Every Family’s Got One came together for our first Writers Workshop. After introductions, hugs, and food (a big part of any workshop experience as far as I'm concerned), we settled into a table read. A table read if you didn’t know is just that – sitting around the table, paper in hand, reading our stories. Here are 3 things that made my heart soar: 1. Even in this most casual of settings, the stories came to life. There is an emotional [...]
