Episode #12 of the Speak Up Storytelling podcast is ready for your listening pleasure. This week we’re joined by storyteller Jeni Bonaldo, whose story we listen to and critique.
We start by talking about finding and crafting stories in your everyday life using my strategy “Homework for Life.” I talk about how a story can be about more than one thing, and part of the decision-making process is deciding what your story needs to be about. We also talk about how to remember stories for the stage.
Next, we listen to Jeni’s story about pretending to be someone she was not and the surprising results. Then Elysha Dicks, Jeni, and I discuss the strengths of his fantastic story as well as suggestions for improvement.
Finally, we answer a listener questions about preparing stories for the stage and dealing with stage fright and offer some recommendations.
