On episode #112 of the Speak Up Storytelling podcast, Matthew and Elysha Dicks are back, talking storytelling!

In our follow up segment, we discuss Elysha's recovery from COVID-19, a public service announcement on birds, upcoming shows and workshops, and more.

In our Homework for Life segment, Matt talks about finding stories through contrast.

Next we listen to a story by Sue Huggans.

Amongst the many things we discuss include:

  1. The chronology of storytelling

  2. Controlling your audience's wonder

  3. Description without adjectives

  4. The powerful combination of surprise and vulnerability

  5. Avoiding describing scenes after the fact

Next we answer questions about our podcasting equipment, Charlie's finger, and creating a family legacy.

Lastly, we each offer a recommendation.
