“Storytellers are the direct medium between the story and the audience, able to change pace, alter or explain a difficult point, dramatize or play down an event, according to the needs of those listening.”
[The Art of the Storyteller by Beverley Mathias]
I write and present stories designed to:
* bring issues into the open,
* raise questions and
* expand your listener’s understanding.
I tell stories to:
* extend your audiences’ thoughts on real or imagined worlds,
* stimulate your listeners’ creative imagination,
* create an appetite for words, and
* introduce the shared activity of storytelling – from author or teller to audience”.
I send stories ‘travelling’ in books, vids. and podcasts but more effectively, I bring them in person, face-to-face for your audience.
I welcome all new opportunities to author, illustrate and use stories at events and informal get-togethers. Contact me and tell me about your intended audience – their age range, interests and listening experience.
