SEARING
STORIES
Candid stories served over a nice dinner.
Hosted by Edward Gao and William Chai.

Our editorial aims to document the depth of human experience by speaking with individuals from diverse backgrounds. Each session is a transcribed conversation accompanied with a hearty meal we prepare to no cost of your own, intended to isolate insights on creative process and specific personal growth.
Participation in Searing Stories requires formal application.
We seek individuals with compelling, rigorous stories concerning their craft, a systemic realization, or a moment of defined personal growth. Acceptance is based on the quality and specificity of the story proposed. All participants must agree to and sign our media consent and release agreement prior to the session.
