We focus on the place of response communities in narrative inquiry. While we have always engaged in response communities, the theoretical basis for their importance is not well developed. Experiences in response communities allow us to be, and live, in the world in ways marked by courage and vulnerability. Response communities are created to help us further our field texts and interim and final research texts and to provide insight into our present and future stories. Response communities help us understand ourselves, within what Arendt calls public spaces. Arendt helps us conceptualize response communities as spaces of appearance.
