What does home mean to you? What does it look like, sound like, feel like? What does it mean to be without a home? And if you have several places to call home, are you always partly grieving for one place and people far away, or are you enjoying the best of both? What do you love, miss, hate, wish for? </span><br /><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;" >YOUR TASK SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT: </span><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span><ul style="font-family:verdana;"><li style="font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Write a story</span> about what home is to you and post it here.

I may use your text directly though, so please be aware that by participating you are waiving your copyright to anything you submit. </span><span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></span><br />_________<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />The Narrative Project is collaborative art. It is a collection of stories, experiences and perspectives that sometimes follow linear paths and sometimes intertwine, with one defined starting point and many endings. Your thoughts and images will help shape the final piece(s) and I do hope you'll join in!<br /><br />To see more of Robyn's work: <a href="http://www.robyndrage.com/">www.RobynDrage.com</a><br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/925930994182710794-5990657289950787522?l=thenarrativeproject.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>rdragehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02633912016160887066noreply@blogger.com1
