Dear Readers, we have a question for you: Do you know about the origins and history of the journals you decide to submit your manuscripts to for publication? We are most pleased to present to you an interview with the three Co-Editors-in-Chief of TQR (Ron Chenail, Sally St. George, and Dan Wulff) and David Denborough of the Dulwich Centre delving into the origins of TQR in the early 1990s. The roots of TQR were intertwined with family therapy authors and practitioners (Tom Andersen, Michael White, and many others) and that continues today. We think that you will find these historical relationships and influences to be fascinating and instructive in understanding how one qualitative research journal came into being and how it is positioning itself to go forward.

We are using this interview to introduce the Narrative Practice Research Network special issue on practice-based research, in particular, narrative therapy and research. Starting December 9, 2024, for each week in December, we will be publishing a new section of this special issue, a collaboration between The Qualitative Report and the Narrative Practice Research Network.
