Sunday Obsession: Sean Dietrich

I love words. I love those who can string words together and make you feel something. And there are few things that I love more than a strong Southern voice.

Sean Dietrich encompasses all of this. If you have not followed him on Facebook, I strongly urge you to do so.

He is a storyteller. I have read his story on the Evacuees of Hurricane Irma. I have read his piece on the young man that was put up for adoption because of his disability, who grew up in hospitals, and who's dream was to one day have a paying job. I have read his story about the waitress, who had worked hard her whole life. Sean Dietrich idolizes the common man, and gives voice to their stories. And at the end of each of these pieces, my heart had been touched, and I felt as if I had had the encounter with the inspiration of the story.

His voice is Southern through-and-through. His piece on a quaint little Alabama town. After reading it, I longed so much to be driving through said Alabama town.

I love Sean Dietrich. I love his voice. I love his writing. He is very befitting of my Sunday Obsession.
