One literal definition of a corner is that it's an intersection where two streets come together. If you're going in one direction, a corner is a place where you can turn to go a different way. It's also a place where you might unexpectedly encounter someone coming from a different direction. It goes one way for a while and then, often surprisingly, it turns a corner to go a different way.

The Corner in March: Lucky Charms
This month’s theme is “Lucky Charms.” May the luck of the Irish be with you! This March at The Corner we’re celebrating what it means to be lucky. Do you have a story about a time of extraordinary good fortune? Was there an object that contributed to your luck: A four leaf clover, a rabbit’s foot, a lucky penny, or maybe something less traditional like a t-shirt, a rock, or a breakfast cereal? Of course, there’s not always a rainbow or pot of gold at the end of every story, so feel free to tell about a time when lady luck left you high and dry.

As always, the themes at The Corner are just a starting point, an opportunity to take a story idea in any direction. There’s no luckier place to try your hand at storytelling than The Corner. Have fun with it! Just come to The Corner: Come listen. Come tell. You might get lucky!

This month’s theme is “Lucky Underpants.” In the words of Calvin, from Bill Watterson’s comic Calvin and Hobbes: “Some days, even my lucky rocketship underpants don’t help.”

Tell a story of a time when you “got lucky”--or when some luck made a difference, or WOULD have made all the difference…if only!

You may not have lucky rocketship underpants like Calvin, but is there anything that, when you put it on, makes you feel like a superhero? A blazer, a pair of socks––a piece of jewelry? An heirloom? Did you have a stuffed animal you brought everywhere as a kid? Tell us a story about an object of power in your life.

Sometimes a person can be your good luck charm. Who do you call before a job interview?

Do you have any traditions or habits that bring you luck? A meal that you cook to get you in the right frame of mind? A certain route that you drive to the doctor’s office?

As always, take our theme descriptions as a starting point, but don't let them limit you. We invite stories that invert this theme in creative ways and go in unexpected directions.
