Storyteller

We are all storytellers. You can tell me a story when I am sitting across the table from you or to me and others in a theatre. You can tell it by writing me a letter or a whole novel. You can tell it to me on the radio, on tv, in the cinema, on dvd, on the interent, through social media ortexting.
You can read hundreds of books about storytelling and watch great storytellers but for all of us it comes down to a memory of when we were six and we saw something fantastic. Then we rushed home full of the expereience to tell a parent or our best mate and we knew that we had to tell the story well, get them and keep them interested. Why, because like all the best storytellers we wantedmore than anything else for them to share our excitement
