Master storyteller and bestselling author Richard Van Camp on how to tell a good story
Gathering around a campfire, or the dinner table, we humans have always told stories. Through the stories we tell, we define our own identities and shape our understanding of the world. Master storyteller and bestselling author Richard Van Camp writes of the power of storytelling and its potential to transform both the speaker and the audience in Gather. Describing the elements required to make a story, he offers insights into how to read a room, how to capture the attention of listeners, how to create community through storytelling, and how to banish loneliness. A member of the Tlicho Dene First Nation, Van Camp includes stories from Elders whose wisdom influenced him.Languages:EnglishPublisher:University of Regina PressISBN-13:9780889777002ISBN-10:889777004UPC:9780889777002Book Category:Language Arts & Disciplines, Social Science, Performing ArtsBook Subcategory:Writing, Indigenous Studies, StorytellingSize:8.50 x 4.90 x 0.60 inchesWeight:0.5512Product ID:SCMXBJJNP9
