0037_scott_plate_2As a storyteller, and an accidental journalist, it’s easy to find stories that grab me, but they don’t always fully satisfy my curiosity. Sometimes the stories I discover were never written down, and sometimes they’re just short online posts that just fill me up with more questions than they answer. When I found Seamus’s story, though, I soon realized that it was all already there, and there was really nothing I could do to make it any better, and why try?

So today’s guest was willing to share his amazing story with us as it was first published on his blog, and I’m so grateful for this! I have to also just shout out Amy Dalton from episode 33 here too, because even though I didn’t mention it, she surprised me with a prepared story for her interview, and made me realize how nice it is to have it all laid out for me already. I have to say I’m feeling a little spoiled with how little editing I’ve had to do lately… but anyway…

Today’s storyteller is an actor, a professor, a director, a writer, and, of course, an animal lover… this is Scott Plate, and this is his story:
