There are many resources available for those
who feel story calling to them beyond the normal activities of their daily lives
and have interest in becoming a storyteller in their community, town, region,
or country. However, there is no right or wrong way to approach storytelling
as a pastime or a profession. Many individuals have simply contacted local libraries
or bookstores offering their time to read stories to children. Some have gone
to storytelling workshops to make contacts and hone their art. Some have contacted storytelling
festival coordinators directly to apply for a spot in front of larger audiences.
Still others have hosted their own neighborhood
storytelling events.
