While I think storytelling is a meaningful way to spend your life... it does feel a little bit secondary or off-point.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like storytelling, and I feel more confident as the years have gone on about my ability to do that.
Storytelling is fine as long as you can encourage people to act on the stories.
Storytelling is about two things; it's about character and plot.
I believe that stories are incredibly important, possibly in ways we don't understand, in allowing us to make sense of our lives, in allowing us to escape our lives, in giving us empathy and in creating the world that we live in.
I think world creation and monster creation and all of that stuff is exciting as a secondary element of storytelling. When it becomes more important than storytelling, I get very nervous, and you sort of lose me a little bit.
I think understanding your life as a story is a really terrific way of kind of knowing where you are and knowing who you are.
Storytelling is storytelling. Good stories need compelling characters and interesting conflicts. That's the bottom line no matter what medium you're writing for.
I think storytelling is all about children. We human beings love to hear stories being told - and it first happens when you're a kid.
Storytelling is the essential human activity. The harder the situation, the more essential it is.
Storytelling is an ancient and honorable act. An essential role to play in the community or tribe. It's one that I embrace wholeheartedly and have been fortunate enough to be rewarded for.
