Video Replay: My First Substack Live with STORIED STUFF Editors Steve and Sharon Fiffer

It was my pleasure to interview Steve and Sharon Fiffer, co-editors of a brilliant new anthology of essays, STORIED STUFF: Show and Tell for Grown-Ups Vol.1 (Christmas Lake Press, April 2025)

I’ve had the honor of knowing authors Steve and Sharon Fiffer for nearly two decades, and from DAY ONE, I’ve admired their writing wisdom and passion for building community.

In this interview, we discuss (among other things)…

…how Steve and Sharon Fiffer conceived the idea for STORIED STUFF, their brilliant new anthology of short stories about cherished objects

…how they collaborate as co-editors, and

…how YOU can submit a story to the Storied-stuff.com website.

Grab your copy of STORIED STUFF (the book) now, and check out the STORIED-STUFF (website) submissions guidelines to submit your own short story (up to 500 words) about a cherished object.

Short Stories that Make a Big Impact

All proceeds of the STORIED STUFF books will go to organizations supporting those who lost cherished objects in the 2025 L.A. fires.

*News flash: If you feel the urge to write, then you’re officially a writer. You don’t need anyone’s permission to call yourself a writer — but if you’re still unsure, repeat after me:

I AM A WRITER.
