Join us to watch and listen to autumnal tales when the nights get darker and the people get closer. When the nights get darker, the tales get darker. Just ask to join #stories #storytelling #myth #magic #mystery #folk #folklore #fantasy #fiction #legend #history

Reworked an area of the garden so that when we are inside more, I have a magic view. I have been bad at gardening this year as I have been so busy. The trouble with being busy is that you don’t have time to look and search for the next project, so off I go, who needs a storyteller? #stories

I have just spent an amazing weekend @greenmanfest watching @ninawinderlind conquer the main stage for the @broadsidehacks Dylan tribute. Spent time with @tlloydwinder and @hugowinderlind and @matthewlloydwinder. Saw @daisyrickman #stories #Wales #hills #riverusk #music #magic #mystery #sharing

I am not terrified at all …… as @easfstory move forward to become a CIC and we take big adult steps forward. It is also exciting to be planning for next year with growth and development😀 #stories #storytelling #eastanglia #stowmarket #foodmuseum #storytellers #spokenword #myth #legend #folklore

How do people move a story forward? I have told the story of Eleanor Cobham, a woman accused of heresy and witchcraft in 1441, but it needs to be re-focused. Perhaps a bath and some thinking is needed…… #stories #storytelling #r#history #legend #folklore #mystery #heretic #astrology

Am working on my ‘Her-stories’ and my flying, galloping highway woman. I am re-working this and got stuck on the title! Procrastination, I walk with you and get lost with you and at present you lead me up the garden path! #stories #storytelling #planning #titles #myth #legend

Our last session of the year as we gently wind down and run for the summer hills, valleys or beaches of our dreams. Just ask to join to watch and listen. #storytelling #myth #magic #mystery #witches

@marionleeper8 and I had a brilliant day yesterday planning the future of @easfstory as I steps quietly and carefully into her shoes as director. I have now been educated in the planning year!!! Big panic now….am I up to the job? Only time will tell. 😊🎩💚#stories #storytelling #myth #magic

Up early and working when it’s cool! Reworking of The Buried Moon that was told for @easfstory @foodmuseumuk. It’s a story from #EastAnglia and it would be good to draw together the stories #stories #storytelling #myth #legend #folklore #folk #witch #fairy #history #moon #darklings

My favourite tree in the gentle evening light when it was still a bit hot for a dog in a fur coat. This is the tree the highway woman hid. Clear the desk to start the story 😊🎩💚 #stories #storytelling #hertfordshire #ghosts #fairies #witches #hoydens #history #myth #legend #folklore #music #song

What a mad few weeks and now I have had to stop. My body has given out on me and I am having a few days off to recover. I was supposed to be going to @thunderstealing but I won’t be there. Have a great time hope to see people on the story road soon 😊🎩💚 #stories #storytelling #myth #folklore #fantasy

Day 1 @eastanglianstorytellingfestival and beautiful stories are flowing from every corner #stories #storytelling

Slow start because there is so much to do and I need to organise my mind. Sometimes it is instant but today the reorganisation is taking time. Words flow slowly and thoughts flit. Recording a story 😊 #story #storytelling

Beautiful dappled sunshine in the wood. I walked and thought and taught. Lovely day and magically quiet.

Take a bunch of storytellers and make them and their bouquet of accents travel far and wide. Today we are in Kilkenny at the Hole in the Wall. The stories will flow and the magic will be created #stories #storytelling #Ireland #kilkenny #magic #mystery #myth #legend #folklore #history

Great @folklorepod.bsky.social of #BramStoker and #Devon connections. Loved the gentle chat of the podcast as I listened today and as usual it was a great listen. You should hear the storyteller #eimearburke tell the story of the original Irish Vampire. Back to work #stories #storytelling #folklore

Some weeks can have more journeys and adventures than others. So many different people and places this week and it has been fun but exhausting! #stories #storytelling #people #places

Dancing flutes of magnolia are making my day 😊

Great pub, lovely venue and a nice storytelling audience. What a great thing to do on a Sunday afternoon, thanks all #wyndhamarms

Tomorrow, Sunday 30th. Mothers assemble, but what sort of mothers are these? Big boots, large ladles and a good turn of phrase. Join me for some stories, some smiles and a good afternoon. #stories #storytelling

Off to Somerset next weekend 😊

Back again to a storytellers question. Does the origin of a story matter? If it was made up, but is seen as folklore now? As a storyteller of folklore and myth I have problems with this, not sure why @folklorepod.bsky.social @icysedgwick.bsky.social @folkloresociety.bsky.social

Love working with others to explore ideas and this was such great fun. We made such simple puppets and they were such a joy. So many different ideas of the things that came out of the Lincolnshire Carrs or bogs #story #storytelling #workshops #residency

The culmination of artist in residence @stalbanscathedral. Six stories to tell new tales. Thank you the cathedral @mariastoryteller for the mouse @edmundlloydwinder for the music. Also @stalbansmuseums #stories #storytelling #myth #tellingnotreading #folklore #legend #history #locallegends #story

Narrow road to the way home 😊 just a thought

Worst. Episode. EVER.

'Josephine Baker wearing her medals from her service in French Resistance at the Civil Rights March on Washington DC, 1963'

Yesterday I was in a school for #NationalStorytellingweek yesterday and it was great. All together in their library gave a lovely atmosphere. Lovely to do some live telling this week as well as recording stuff 😊🎩💚 #stories #narrative #traditionaltales #storytelling #myth #legend #folklore

Capturing the image of the story is difficult. This story is about the wall paintings but somehow I am not capturing this. Need to start again…… #thinking #storytelling #designing #setting

In my upside-down world I filled Tuesday with Thursdays events. I have now adjusted my week and I do not have to be in a school at 9am tomorrow!! #date #mixup

Sitting quietly listening to the blackbird announcing the dusk and suggesting it is time all birds were asleep, what a beautiful sound

There is something about the quiet desolation of February that is forgotten. The smallest month with so much hope for the future rolled into it. The stories are building like the life flowing through the trees and plants, hope 💚 #stories #story-telling #folklore

When your morning brain looks like this!! I usually have a list, this helps me get through stuff, still not back in the flow after a week of epic performance and participation. Need to get my ducks in a row……….

I am home from Marrakesh and the 3rd Marrakesh International Storytelling Festival where the storytellers achieved the longest storytelling session to achieve a Guinness World Record. Storytelling was a traditional art form that lasted for centuries Today, storytelling is back in Marrakesh 😊🎩💚

At the Pink Palace! Thank you #sofitelmarrakesh for supporting #MISF2025 #Bahja taking storytelling to the streets and beautiful places of #marrakesh. Thank you to #Marrakesh for taking the storytellers to your 💚 #storytelling #story #myth #legend #folklore

Telling stories on the ancient square in Marrakesh, what a privilege and joy 🤩

At the #3rdMarrakeshInternationalStorytellingFestival and the stories are flowing. The city is joyful and the people have welcomed us. I am off to tell more stories, share stories and listen to stories 🤩

There were slight touches of sun but it was all a bit quiet today….. #walk #think #story

Rehearsing and recording. Storytelling, oral telling of a story with no script. First run through of my boy bishop story, taking a historical fact and creating a story to surround it. Aidan is coming alive #story #storytelling #history #folklore

On a draw handles hunt……

Bitter cold today in South Mimms. Going to be working in bed with electric blanket on!!!!

Working with John Barleycorn is dead this morning…..more later 😊

I am emerging out of the winter holiday, longest night, Christmas and New Year gently. I started admin yesterday and today was the dreaded tax return. Hopefully I can move into more creative realms now 😊🎩💚 #story #storytelling #myth #folklore #stories #legend #mystery #magic #history #fantasy

Put up my lovely collection of wooden decorations. Amazing to think there there a decoration fashions! New concepts and complete trees and decorations bought each year. I love bringing out the old with one new thing. New or old? #decorations

Can’t believe it’s 42 years ago. It was a cold damp day but we were kept warm by sheer exuberance. #GreenhamCommon
