After beginning to tell at our local storytellers' monthly meetings, I began to volunteer at a community house and the local YMCA (as a volunteer). Then, the children's librarian at our local library asked if I would be interested in a project "in...
Anyone could jump into the college jungle without a map, but the survival rate goes down and “starving artist” takes on a whole new meaning. Learn the Jungle Laws to connect with the 18-35-year-olds.
We promote youth storytelling as well as encourage educators and other adults to use storytelling with youth as an educational tool in classrooms and in other settings. We teach to tell and tell to teach.
I have been trying many different kinds of venues. I love high school work, historical societies have been a good draw their budget cant always afford a show I work with them to find a way to make it work. Often they can split the cost and invite ...
At present I only tell at a local storytellers club. Nowhere else. Still looking for the right place and time to begin the telling journey.

Betty R Smith said… - Hi Teresa...can't make the conference this year :-( I'm involved with the 90th KY/TN Kiwanis convention being held in my backyard at the MeadowView in Kingsport. I have a small responsibility :-) but it will keep me there all weekend.
But October is just around the corner and yes we'll get together. Can't wait. If it's your last for a while, then we'll make it a big blowout.

Roger Armstrong said… - Thanks! Turns out I have a lot more on my plate than I had thought. One of our members died in his yard today; funeral is in the planning stage; Hendrix College is holding a memorial service where my brother Don will be honored Sunday morning; and my District Superintendent called and wants to talk with my church tomorrow night about the possibility of my moving to another congregation.
I am still trying to keep focused on the Writer's and Storyteller's workshop presentation.
I used up all my computer printer ink trying to print out the Board Book!
I know there are stories in there somewhere! Enjoy the meeting!

Profile Information
- About Me:
- Someone once said if storytelling were a liquid you would find it running through my veins! My story work involves performance, education, production, and advocacy. From the festival platform to peer workshops, to classrooms and personal consultation in living rooms across America I delight in the sharing and harvest of story. Best known for my original works and recollections of life's experiences blended with history, I entertain and educate wherever I go as I share my passion for storytelling. I fear our over extended techno-planet lifestyle has led to a numbing of hearts. I tell in the hope I may help people reconnect with themselves, their hopes, and their dreams. I tell so others will remember what it‘s like to feel.
My advocacy work currently finds me on the Board of the National Storytelling Network serving as Western Region Director and Vice Chair. My quest is to make sure the hopes and concerns of membership are at the fore of every conversation within this member-driven organization. Naturally, it follows that I love to hear from NSN members!
“Teresa’s work takes storytelling beyond entertainment to be a force for healing in the world. By helping people discover the stories of their lives, Teresa helps them discover the meaning of their lives. There is no greater gift.” - Rev. Lee Greiner, Unitarian Universalist Fellowship
