And like all good schools, at the end of each episode our producer will leave us with some homework, a unique storytelling challenge, which we invite you to join us on as well, so that we can learn, practise and share together.
We know that everyone has the potential to become a better storyteller; especially if we can share feedback, knowledge and ideas. Telling Stories is a space where you can practise and submit work, learn from experienced storytellers, and find links to other inspiring stories recommended each week by our guests. The more we connect, the more we can learn and the bigger our community becomes.
