Your Story Deserves to Be Heard—Let Me Tell Ya! Guild Meets Tonight

Here's what we've learned over countless guild meetings: that story you've been hesitating to share? The one you think is "just a random Tuesday" or "probably boring"? It's almost certainly more powerful than you realize.
That moment that still makes you pause when you're driving alone. That memory you've told exactly twice—once to your best friend and once to yourself at 2 AM. That turning point you've never quite found the words for.
The Let Me Tell Ya! Storytelling Guild exists for exactly this—to be the place where your almost-told stories finally find their voice.
How We Work Our Magic
This isn't open mic night. This isn't a writing critique where red pens come out. When you share with the guild, you're entering a collaborative workshop where fellow storytellers become your creative partners.
We ask three powerful questions:
What made us feel something? We highlight the moments that landed—when your words created images so vivid we forgot we were in our living rooms on Zoom. When your vulnerability made the room (virtual or otherwise) hold its breath.
Where did we lose the thread? With kindness and curiosity, we point out places where clarity might help. Not because your story is broken, but because we want to follow you all the way through. Sometimes the storyteller is so close to their material they can't see what outsiders need to stay with them.
What do we want more of? We identify the narrative gold—the sensory details, the emotional beats, the surprising turns—that deserve more space to shine. Often these are the very elements you rushed past because they felt too small or too personal.
Think of it as having friendly archaeologists help you excavate treasure that's already buried in your story. We're not building something new—we're revealing what's already there.
All Stories Welcome
Whether you've performed at The Moth or only rehearsed stories while washing dishes, you belong here. Family legends, career catastrophes, adventures that went beautifully wrong, quiet moments when everything shifted—all of it has a home at our table.
Our only guidelines? Keep it 5-7 minutes and family-friendly. Beyond that, the entire territory of human experience is yours to explore.

Bring a story that's been waiting its turn. Bring your generous attention and curiosity about others' stories. What you'll find isn't performance anxiety or competition—it's community. The increasingly rare gift of time and attention from people who genuinely care about helping your story become everything it wants to be.
Maybe right now a particular memory is surfacing. Something that happened last month or thirty years ago. Something funny, profound, or both. Whatever it is, it's ready. And so are we.
Join us tonight at 7 PM ET. Your story is waiting to meet its best version.
The Let Me Tell Ya! Storytelling Guild meets monthly. Can't make tonight's gathering? Follow us for updates on future sessions—your story will keep.
