Alabama Storytelling Association Conference

The Alabama Storytelling Association held their first annual conference in Selma, Alabama along side the Tale Telling Festival led by Kathryn Tucker Windham. It was such a pleasure to see so many storytellers together at one time sharing their stories. As one of the workshop leaders, I was able to pass on some often forgotten but engaging ways to share stories with children such as stories in mime, cutting stories with scissors, drawing stories, and more. I reminded those attending to remember the Letter "P" when telling to children. That stands for "Participation!"
