About Me:

I'm a comedian/motivational speaker and I use stories and storytelling as my style of delivery. I have a program called "Who hijacked my fairy tale: How to hang on to humor when life doesn't go as planned." And, by the way, life never goes as planned. You can see more about me on www.kellyswanson.net.

I am a big fan of the Comedic part of storytelling. I perform for both children and adults. I'm a puppeteer but have also started doing some story telling without the puppets and find that I really like the thrill of having people respond with laughter.
Ps. I really liked your website too!

And I am most happy and humbled to help you whenever and however I can. Please do not look at me as the expert. Look at me as someone else with an outstretched hand on your journey - someone willing to share her mistakes so that you don't have to make them too. Still figuring out how this whole comment wall thing works. Steve Evans: I'm hoping this is how I answer your comment. Yes - I will join the applied Storytelling group. Tell me how to do it and I will. Again, I'm still figuring how all this works.

I've never had so many people ask to be my friend in my life. Where were you all in high school?
If you ask to be my friend and I don't respond - don't take it personally, either ask me again or assume that I'm out of town working, or that I couldn't figure out how to do it.

Later taters,

Tho't I was going crazy. I KNEW I'd been to your website enroute to sending you a 'welcome to PS.ning,' but there was no trace of my having done so; BUT, I remembered those images, those phrases, that photo . . . ahhhhhhhhh-hhhhhhh, uhhhhhhhhhmmmm-hmmmmmmm!
YOU are the one DJM sent me to see, when he was offering his counsel about auditon DVDs a couple of days ago - THAT's why I tho't I was doing this again...

Sorry.

So, where were we? Right, welcome!

As I'm sure David Joe told you, this is an awesome site; it will do you lots of good, and YOU will do it (us) a lot of good - it's only fair.

I've listened to/witnessed you doing 'your thing,' and I know enough to know that you have a great deal of insight, info, discernment and wisdom to share with our online family, so I look forward to your sharing with us; I wish you the best as you continue your journey and, again, send my warm greetings and a big Welcome!

Sincerely,

Tom Taylor (from Deep in the Heart of Texas)
