I have spent most of my life telling stories. In my first year at university in a northern city, I would walk the streets and tell stories I concocted to random people. I taught college and university for over 30 years, embedding stories into many of the lessons I gave. My students used to call me a storyteller. In the textbooks that I wrote and in some of my other adventures in non-fiction, I tried tobe more narrator than reporter of "just the facts." My students told me that reading my textbooks was like reading the words I spoke in class.What are these stories like? They are more Alice's Restaurant than Alice Munro.

Every story has a happy ending.
