About Infamous Fables

A podcast about people and their stories. Here I seek to let individuals share their personal experience through the art of storytelling. Each new episode will be a collection of stories I have gathered from the people I have interviewed, brought to life with their words. Episodes will be going up weekly until May.

   Episode Seven: Reflections

   In this episode, I talk about what I've learned from this podcast and what's to come. I tell the story of Oya and tie that in with the importance of looking at cultures all around the world for inspiration in your works. I also talk about the way that storytelling has influenced me and how I hope this podcast has influenced others. Today's quote is from 365 Goddess by Patricia Telesco.

   In this episode, I speak with Raven Moffett, a researcher and lens-based scholar at the University of Arizona.
