Hello beloved Second Breakfasters, and welcome Wanderers (and other interested folk). As you may know I am deeply invested in the care and feeding of storytellers,
as well as musicians. A couple of up-and-coming bards asked if we could have a special session devoted to the art and craft of a great story; it is a difficult
thing to create a brief and memorable tale, and having me and a few others as a "practice audience" may relieve some of the stage fright and help us learn to
use Lyrical and specific emotes in a way that enhances the telling. Besides myself, you'll meet (if you haven't already) the Dwarf Dufnald, who seeks to retell the proud heritage of his
people in a way that is both entertaining yet mindful of the gravity of the subject. I would like to explore alliterative verse and poetry, but there are so many other poetic
options available, and if you also are a proud English major out of game, it's a grand opportunity to explore language and creative writing that's meant to be "spoken aloud"
yet is read by each player individually without the nuance of a voice. How would you tell a brief story about yourself or your experiences in-game? How would you convey
the high or low points, the humor, the pathos, using nothing but your avatar?
Contact me if you're interested, please! Let's find a time to talk in-game, and may we all rise to the level of the Legendary Twynk Tale.
