The Future of Story-Telling

A question came up this week about whether we are in good hands for the story-telling future.

I remembered the fun I had at Peterborough Public Library when I did A Writer’s Workshop for Children (8-12 yrs). Those in attendance listened to a reading from Soapstone Signs and then were shown many different types of raw carving stone. The participants were challenged to write, draw or speak about what they saw inside the carving stone.

Some amazing creativity was shown by the 16 remarkable young story-tellers. We are in great hands!
