I Am A Storyteller

At Least I thought I Was

I can come up with stories so easily as a writer

But personal stories are not as easy when being interviewed

I am a storyteller

At least that what I thought

But I think that's only in writing

And made-up stories

In made-up stories you can talk about something you never experience

I guess I could make up a personal story and make it real

And believable, without losing my train of thought in the middle of it

It can’t sound rehearse though

A good storyteller gets jobs

That's the goal... To become a good storyteller

    Your introspection about storytelling is both honest and relatable.

  • Our personal stories are often hard to tell, but with prayer and strength we can tell them...

    Oh, this is so relatable! Writing stories? Easy. Talking about yourself? Suddenly, words vanish. Love the honesty and humor in this—feels like every writer’s inner monologue before an interview. You are a storyteller, no doubt about it!

    I love this! I was always taught in English classes in high school, that it doesn't have to be real, it just has to be believable. And this was a very great representation of what I contemplate with when I go to write anything.
