Meet Nina Strohlic, @ninasabina24, South Sudan Fellow: “I look for stories that are unexpected for their setting. By using that as a hook, I can get people to read about people or places they wouldn’t normally care about. We have a very 2D perception of much of the world, but by exposing a scene or a character that mirrors aspects of a reader’s life, more dimensions can be added.”
