All good stories are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished listening to one, you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places, and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a storyteller. — Ernest Hemingway, novelist
I encourage you to think about telling more stories — to entice people to read your books, to interact with you on social media, or to become an advocate for you.
The more stories you tell, the more listeners will become involved in what you have to teach and what you have to share.
And if you are a storyteller, then you really are somebody that people will pay attention to, that people will listen to.
