Why Interview Lindsay

Books and movies enrich our lives and often, at their best, introduce us to people and situations with which we are unfamiliar. The 21st century has revealed a far more diverse range of voices, situations, and settings than we have previously experienced. The old adage of “walking a mile in someone else’s shoes” perfectly describes the role of today’s storytellers, who provide glimpses into worlds that are often new to us, enlarging our understanding and increasing our empathy.


With the struggle(s) facing many of us in our day-to-day lives, we search for a particular solution to help improve our well-being. In The Orphan From Shepherds Keep, Lindsay ideally informs someone facing their struggles how to take the steps necessary for a better tomorrow.
