Storytelling

Storytelling is almost the oldest art in the world, the first conscious form of literary communication. In many cultures it still survives, and it is not an uncommon thing to see a crowd at a street corner held by the simple narration of a story. There are signs of a growing interest in this ancient art, and we may yet live to see the renaissance of the storyteller and the troubadour.

 Preparing to Tell a Story

Storytellers learn their stories in many different ways. Some read or listen to a story over and over. Some meditate on it. Some type or write out the story. Some draw charts. Somebegin telling the story at once. However you do it, you must absorb the story until it becomes second nature. Find the best way for you.

Healing Stories

Long before pen was set to paper, fairy tales, legends and stories existed as a means to transfer knowledge from one generation to another. Spreading knowledge through stories was both entertaining and educational.

Once Upon A Time in the Land of Separation and Divorce...

Words like "custody", "visitation", "child support" and "court" trigger fear and confusion in children as they try to define these words and concepts. The key to helping the children understand lies in simple stories.

Spiritual Storytelling

Religious stories always have an underlying purpose, which is to inspire people with faith and communicate wisdom and values.
