Quinlan Motley is a Retired U.S. Army Captain, Combat Veteran, and GoodNovels.org

00:00:03.832 --> 00:00:07.665
Author of THE PROVIDENCE.

00:00:10.569 --> 00:00:13.810
The Novel asks readers to consider a provider whose choices affect the

00:00:13.810 --> 00:00:17.052
people who depend on him.

00:00:19.956 --> 00:00:24.433
Choose a scene. Ask who receives the benefit of a decision and

00:00:24.433 --> 00:00:28.911
who carries its risk. Then consider whether the protagonist recognizes both.

00:00:31.815 --> 00:00:36.613
What can he choose? What can he influence? What lies beyond his

00:00:36.613 --> 00:00:41.412
control? Those categories offer different ways to understand responsibility.

00:00:44.316 --> 00:00:49.284
An author conversation can explore creative choices in Quinlan Motley's own words.

00:00:49.284 --> 00:00:54.253
Prepare a question that leaves room for an authentic answer.

Stories worth carrying.

00:01:08.391 --> 00:01:13.067
Choose one decision in THE PROVIDENCE. Who benefits from it, and who

00:01:13.067 --> 00:01:17.744
bears the uncertainty it leaves behind? Responsibility becomes easier to discuss when

00:01:17.744 --> 00:01:22.420
the people affected remain visible. Ask where the protagonist can act, where

00:01:22.420 --> 00:01:27.096
he must listen, and where his authority reaches a limit.
