"Storytelling is a wondrous partnership between a teller, a story and an audience. Each time I tell a story , it is different. The story becomes newly drawn by those who are listening. I watch the audience. I see a wink of recognition, a faint smile, a quick intake of breath - each an awakened memory. These tokens, freely given, inform me about the inner landscapes we are traveling and color the story as it is being told."
