Write Your Story with Ally Fallon: If we’re all a sort of “hero” in our own personal narrative, it begs an obvious question: who is narrating the story?  I watched Harold and the Purple Crayon on Netflix with my kids over the weekend, a children's book turned movie where the main character of a book goes searching for the narrator of his story so that he can better unde...
