Neil White knows how to tell a story. He told his own story in his memoir, In the Sanctuary of Outcasts, about his time in a federal prison that also served as the United States’ last leper colony. He’s written articles, essays, and plays. He’s co-written other people’s memoirs. He can tell you a story, but really what he wants is for you to tell your story. Neil talks to Eddie and Chris about the importance of storytelling. They talk about the process of writing, practical ways to get better at writing, and how special it is to help someone craft their own story--to dig deep into their lives and pull out all the small details that need to be shared. They also talk a little bit about pickleball. Currently, Neil is the CEO of Nautilus Publishing in Oxford, MS. He is the author of plays including Lepers & Cons, Symmetry, Clandestine, and the editor of the anthology Ten-Minute Plays from Oxford. He has been a newspaper editor, magazine publisher, and advertising executive. Resources: Learn more about Nautilus Publishing. Buy In the Sanctuary of Outcasts.
