It snowed last year too: I made a snowman and my brother knocked it down, and I knocked my brother down, and then we had tea.
—Dylan Thomas
The mad love of a brother can be touching, strengthening and life-giving. If you have known a brother who has shared your childhood secrets and grown-up dreams, tell us about him.
- How has your brother influenced you as a person?
- Tell us what you like most about him.
- Share a memory with us.
- Have you ever fought with your brother? How did you resolve the issue?
- How are brothers different from sisters?
- Tell us about sibling rivalry and how your parents handled it.
- Tell us why you miss your brother (if you stay far away from him).
- If there’s one thing you would want for your brother, what would it be?
- Does brotherly love change after marriage?

The Good Men Project is different from most media companies. We are a “participatory media company”—which means we not only have content you read and share and comment on but also multiple ways you can actively be a part of the conversation. As you become a deeper part of the conversation (which really is “The Conversation No One Else is Having), you will learn all of the ways we support our Writer’s Community—FB groups, weekly conference calls, classes in writing, editing, platform building, and How to Create Social Change.
