About the Substack

IDENTITY & PURPOSE. How family stories shape us, even the ones we unearth accidentally. Not afraid to tackle some skeletons in the closet & show how to overcome those beasts.

About Shell Norman

An accidentally retired English teacher--that vocation never fully disappears, so I'll just say I retired from lugging my heavy bookbag through the halls of a high school. I'm interested in family stories and how they shape us.
