Personal accounts, folk and fairy tales, literary recitation, documentary telling, ‘whoppers’, spooky stories...there are as many ways of storytelling as there are humans, and no one else can do it as you can. We will explore some of the most accessible paths, as we gently invite each Storyteller Within to come out and share. The accent is on oral telling, but there’s nourishment here for writers as well. The mood will be positive and supportive throughout. No one is required to say a thing unless they wish to- you’re welcome to come along and just listen and enjoy!
