"to go into stories..."

2 April 2024: Came across this excerpt from a letter Mary Wilkins Freeman wrote to Sarah Orne Jewett: "I suppose it seems to you as it does to me that everything you have heard, seen, or done, since you opened your eyes to the world, is coming back to you sooner or later, to go into stories" (qtd. in Glasser 1). I just love the idea of these two writers talking about their work.
