Hi everyone! This week, I am thrilled to introduce Doyle Glass, a former criminal prosecutor, an American historical novelist, and a sculptor who brings us the powerful story of the young men who fought in Vietnam. Doyle's journey is one of passion, perseverance, and the desire to preserve the untold stories of those who served. His book, Swift Sword, is a tribute to the Vietnam War veterans whose real experiences were often overlooked or forgotten. Tune in for an unforgettable conversation about history, healing, and the importance of telling the truth.
IN THIS EPISODE:
[1:31 Doyle’s background is shared, and he discusses the story of Swift Sword
[3:24] Doyle gave up his role as prosecutor and his passion for these veterans
[6:02] Why weren’t these stories documented
[8:17] How did Doyle find the subjects for his book
[10:01] Doyle’s life experiences at the time of the writing of the first edition
[12:40] Doyle shares the backstory of what we are about to hear
The Vietnam War left deep pain and division, causing many to avoid documenting veterans' true stories. Unlike WWII, Vietnam was marked by controversy and a desire to forget. As veterans pass, their stories risk being lost, a gap the writer seeks to fill with his books.
The writer faced a tough journey creating his book, as many veterans were reluctant to share painful memories. After years of interviews and personal hardships, including caring for his terminally ill wife, he rediscovered the transcripts a decade later and completed the book after two decades.
Doyle's book on the Vietnam War appeals to the Americans who fought in the Vietnam War and their families, as well as to lovers of history. Many readers, including the children, grandchildren, and relatives of veterans, seek a deeper understanding of what their loved ones experienced. The book serves as a way to preserve and uncover the "real truths" of those who fought, capturing a legacy that might otherwise be lost.

It is thought that the obsession with true crime comes from people trying to understand what goes on in the minds of these people and how it’s possible.

S5 Ep 4 - Balancing Act
Season 5 · Episode 6
Tuesday, August 13, 2024 • Duration 34:31
Hey everyone! Welcome to this week's True Fiction Project. India's celebrating its 78th Independence Day, and we've got a treat for you. A few years back, Shukla Lal shared her Partition story (which we have linked to below). Today, I'm excited to continue that thread with her niece and my lifelong friend, Miel Sahgal.
Miel talks about growing up with her inspiring grandfather, his love for yoga, and how he influenced her essay "Balancing Act." At the end of the episode Miel shares her touching essay which hones into the story of her grandfather and her upbringing. Don’t miss it!
IN THIS EPISODE:
[4:30] Miel shares how and why she wrote the essay Balancing Act.
[6:28] Why did Miel start with her grandfather as a starting point?
[11:16] What changes or makes things different from where or how or who you descended from to where you grew up in?
[14:25] Miel and Reenita share their experiences around ritualistic living.
[17:49] Why did Miel’s grandfather promote independence with women in the family?
[19:31] How did yoga bring Miel further into her culture in a different way?
[21:09] What was the connection her grandfather had with her son?
[22:48] Did her grandfather’s relationship with younger friends impact his long lifespan?
[24:20] Why is the essay called Balancing Act?
[26:15] Where can you read more of Miel’s work?
[27:42] We hear the essay Balancing Actby Miel Sahgal.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Yoga, pronounced yog, means to yoke or unite, and wellness comes not just from contortions, but from the integration of mind, body, and spirit; the enduring ancient teachings apply to everyone.
Miel’s lesson from her grandfather was showing that where you live or what you leave behind is not nearly as important as what you carry inside.
Part of the fun of being alive is learning and growing. Spend your time listening to stories of those older and younger than you, learning from your culture and others, and continuing to experience all life has to offer.

How We Healed
.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
Maintaining authentic vernacular in writing, whether for fiction or nonfiction, is essential. It brings the storyline to life, making it feel more genuine and relatable.
Our guest spent hours on end visiting with her husband’s grandmother to capture her biographical story and then share it with us taking creative license to create How We Healed .
The importance of sharing her husband's grandmother's story lies in the universal themes of relationships, personal growth, and perspective. Her connections with family and friends and the lessons she learned are experiences we can all relate to. Often, we view others through the lens of our own perspective, sometimes missing a more holistic understanding of them. As we mature, we start to recognize that it's not all about us; other viewpoints come into focus, and we see people differently.
