Good observation. I suppose that there's this expectation that one must achieve success first before a viable story is created.

I think that we, as a community, need to change that. As personally, the stories, & anecdotes that I've benefitted from the most were mostly shared by entrepreneurs still in the trenches--in the process of building their startups.

Plus to be fair, I haven't quite gotten anything "going" yet.

As someone who has had a few successes and a few failures, I find both types of stories to be interesting to be honest. An informed story of failure can be just as enlightening as the flip-side. Plus, there's nothing to learn from serendipitous success other than "be there at the right time with the right idea".
