Storyteller Tuesdays
Your Story Matters
What are Storyteller Tuesdays? Each week, anyone in the family historian community here on Substack is invited to take the challenge. Your response to the challenge must be a less than 350 word Substack post and it must address the prompt/question directly. That’s it.
After that, watch for links to the amazing posts right here in the Storyteller Tuesdays section of GenStack.

I read My Father’s Daughter by Shell Norman this week. I highly recommend this beautiful memoir. It speaks to all the facets of family, relationships and the history that creates the chemistry of identity.
