Throughout my life there have been moments of hope and clarity. Moments when the world around me was filled with grace and light. I will relay some of those stories in the hope that you will find as much meaning in their telling as I do.

Reading Shakespeare: A Firefly Story
Perhaps the most revelatory moment in Victoria’s reading life happened when she was seven. This was the day I knew Victoria was smarter than me.
