Storytelling is a tradition
that goes back thousands of years in all cultures. Everyone loves to listen to a good story told by a charismatic storyteller.
We all have the capacity to generate a story in some shape or form, be it in a song, a poem, a script, an anecdote, a parable or just a few lines.
Even as a child, I loved bringing my writing to life – in fractured fairytales, scripts for my friends to follow, songs for them to sing – anything that brought them together in playful fun.
And, today, many years later, I’m no different.
Join one of my small creative groups for 45 minutes of play and fun twice a week.
On a more serious note, we’ll also research and discuss the wisdom of philosophers – ancient & contemporary.
This not only gives a strong base to our creativity for our stories, but it also helps us build insights into the power of creative thought.

And the soul gives meaning.’
