<p>Hello to you Patrice listening in <a href="https://www.visitcalifornia.com/places-to-visit/big-bear-lake/" target="_blank">Big Bear, California</a>!</p><p>Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.</p><p>Recently I read the fierce, funny and subversive novel entitled <a href="https://www.amazon.com/When-Women-Were-Dragons-Novel/dp/0385548222" target="_blank">When Women Were Dragons</a> by Kelly Barnhill.  </p><p>A fiery feminist fantasy tale set in 1950s America where thousands of women have spontaneously transformed into dragons, exploding notions of a woman’s place in the world and expanding minds about accepting others for who they really are.</p><p>Of all the many passages I scribbled down so as not to forget this one stays at the top of the list: “<i>We don’t know what we cannot know and we will not know until we know. It requires an incredible amount of humility to be willing to be wrong nearly all the time. But we have to be willing to be wrong, and proven wrong, in order to increase knowledge overall</i>.”</p><p><strong>Story Prompt</strong>: When have you startled yourself by a willingness to be wrong, to be proven wrong, to increase your knowledge about something, somewhere, someone? Write that story!  </p><p><strong>Practical Tip</strong>: The magic of stories is also in the sharing. If you wish share your story with someone or something.   All that matters is you have a story.</p><p><strong>You’re always invited</strong>: “<i>Come for the stories - stay for the magic</i>!” Speaking of magic, would you subscribe, share a 5-star rating + nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!</p><p>Meanwhile, stop by my <a href="https://www.quartermoonstoryarts.net" target="_blank">Quarter Moon Story Arts</a> website to:</p><p>✓ Check out <a href="https://www.quartermoonstoryarts.net/services/" target="_blank">What I Offer</a>,</p><p>✓ Arrange your free <a href="htt
