My favorite (and only) older sister Marsha and my favorite (and only) niece Skylar both belong to L.A.’s Story Salon.
Marsha sent me a flyer about this cool Story Salon event for the whole world:
Story Salon invites storytellers around the globe to fill the world with stories on Saturday, October 20th: Story Salon Saturday. Pick a time on that special Saturday to tell a story…to friends, to strangers, in a coffeehouse or your living room. Then send an e-mail to storysalon@gmail.com and let us know what, where, and when you’re going to be joining storytellers around the world.
Listen in to Story Salon’s series of special podcasts to be posted throughout the day starting at 12:01 A.M. Saturday, October 20th (GMT) during which we’ll give a shout-out to every individual participant in the event.
Hey Mike - Thanks for the plug. I want to encourage everyone to tell a story on October 20th. It’s fun, it’s liberating, and it’s a chance to entertain others with your own self-exploration. You can be funny, you can be serious, you can laugh at yourself, you can let people see a side of you they (or you) might never have even known existed! Just do it!! It might become a way of life - you might find yourself starting your own storytelling collective.
