Welcome to Let Me Tell Ya! We are a vibrant community of people who share an appreciation for the magic of storytelling. Our monthly online Guild meetings provide a platform for storytellers to share their latest works, and our members offer valuable feedback on what resonated with them, what could be improved, and what they craved more of. Our monthly open mic Story Swap is a fun and engaging event that showcases family-friendly stories based on a theme of the month, limited to a concise five to seven minutes.

 

More than just a community, Let Me Tell Ya! is a safe and supportive space that fills a critical need in our lives. We believe storytelling is an art form that can inspire, educate, and entertain, and we strive to cultivate these values in our members. We welcome anyone who wishes to learn how to tell stories, expand their storytelling repertoire, and connect with like-minded individuals.

"When we first talked about starting an online group, I was interested in finding a place to practice telling stories with the hope of becoming proficient enough to perhaps do it publicly.  This worked well for a time, until I ran out of stories that I was wanting to work on.  Then I began to wonder if, when swap night came around, I had anything to offer.  Sometimes I’ve thought, I have nothing so there’s no point in participating. Fighting off the urge to just skip the night I come to lend support to others. But there has been a pleasant surprise; the community that has been created is not just a place to share, and listen and support, but it is a place of inspiration. As individuals share, sparks ignite in a cold spirit, and a story that has been little more than an idea emerges. I now understand why RR Tolkien and CS Lewis would meet and discuss what they were working on, it sparked life within them."

- Paul Armstrong, founding community member
