There’s a line in the layers of the earth, that is made of sediment rare to our planet, but the material is common in space.
That means about 65 million years ago something “out of this world” happened to our Mother Earth. She has never been the same since. This layer is evidence, a literal line in earth’s history that marks the end of one era, and the beginning of a new one. This layer is called the KT Boundary.

I’m not super into science, but I find that fascinating. Because if you could look at my life like the layers of our earth, you would see some personal KT lines; events that have taken place and have changed the composition of who I am.
It was the Fall of 2005 and I found storytelling. A place where everything I had ever done came together. I realized there was a name and a community for how I was raised, and for how I intended to live. How I found storytelling, who I found it with, the way it settled on me – bringing my past, present and future together – was the beginning of an era. Definitely, a personal KT line.
Is it any wonder that I would want to share storytelling with you? The Story@Home event in the Spring of 2012 is my personal invitation to share the power of story with you.
I know that some bloggers think blogging is about the cutest photos, headers and fonts.
I know some genealogists think its about names and dates and pedigree charts.
I know some storytellers think its all about having a platform and being on a stage.
But some know it is more than just photos and fonts.
Some know it is more than dates.
Some know it is more than performing.
If you are a blogger, storyteller, and /or family history enthusiast who knows, in its truest sense, it is so much more, let’s join together in March to celebrate the power of story.
Isn’t it fitting that I was sitting in a little theater in Jonesborough, Tennessee when a storyteller by the name of Nancy Donoval taught me about the KT Line? There will be storytellers like Nancy, and lots of fabulous presenters and speakers at Story@Home. You never know, this event just might be a KT line for you.
And there’s no better time than the present to get your ticket. Because right now we have a fun holiday package. Pass along the link to Santa as a hint, or buy it for yourself. You can never go wrong with the gift of story!
