STORYTELLING: A WORKSHOP SERIES WITH KATE FARRELL
Personal, ageless, inclusive, the art of storytelling is for everyone. If you are a parent, grandparent, teacher, librarian, author, or speaker, this workshop is for you. With step- by-step coaching, you’ll find your own storytelling style for personal or professional use. All it requires is your authentic voice and a love of stories.
ALL WORKSHOPS: SATURDAYS, 2:00 – 3:30 PM | FREE and Open to the Public
January 6, 2024: CREATE YOUR ADVENTURE STORY
As we journey along well-worn tourist paths or to far flung destinations, we are eyewitnesses. If we gather not only photos and mementos, but chronicle our adventures with well-told stories, we can entertain our listeners.
February 3rd: CREATE YOUR CHILDHOOD STORY
The years of early childhood, the first flickers of memory, are precious. Where did it all start? To get a sense of yourself and your own life story, take some time to reflect.
March 2nd: CREATE YOUR STORY OF CHALLENGE
Life offers many challenges—not all are the same size or type. Whatever a particular challenge meant to you, you faced it down, and became the wiser.
March 30th: CREATE YOUR DEFINING STORY
Defining stories are at the heart of self-discovery. They have the power to express our unique identity to others. Circumstances bring out the best and worst in us, but more importantly, they expose our true nature.
April 27th: CREATE YOUR FAMILY FOLKLORE
Family stories matter. They directly impact how we see ourselves because they give us an idea of where we come from and where we’re going.
May 18th: STORYTELLING SHOWCASE
Enjoy the talent and amazing stories of the workshop storytellers! Each teller will have five minutes to share his or her favorite story created in the West Portal series.
Each workshop is based on a chapter from Kate’s how-to book on storytelling, Story Power: Secrets to Creating, Crafting, and Telling Memorable Stories. To learn more about Kate’s techniques, borrow the book from SFPL or purchase from Bookshop West Portal.
Sponsored and supported by West Portal Branch Adult Librarian, Silvia Lew.

Storytelling with “Story Power” Author Kate Farrell
January 14, 2022 by San Francisco Writers Conference
Podcast host Matthew Félix asked Kate about the importance of stories. He also asked about the history of oral storytelling, as well as the resurgence it has enjoyed since the 1970s. Kate explained the difference between telling a story orally and writing it down, highlighting the role that a live audience has as co-creator in the experience. Storytelling is not just for the stage, but also has practical, day-to-day applications, as illustrated by three types of stories: defining, signature, and personal branding. Watch on YouTube!

Insult to Injury: Stories about Wounds
Event by Better Said Than Done
On September 9, 2021, join emcee Jessica Robinson and storytellers Tim Ereneta, Kate Farrell, Erin Johnston, Vicki Juditz, Jude Treder-Wolff, and Nancy Wang for “Insult to Injury: Stories About Wounds.” Live streaming online starting at 8:00pm EDT on September 9th.
This episode is one of Haiti’s most popular folktales, the story of a young girl’s special friendship with a fish, the story of Tezen the Fish. It is an incredible story which talks about the symbiotic relationship between nature and humans and that we need to respect nature. The girl understands and develops a relationship with the earth and is appreciated, recognized as a worthy girl, and rewarded. We also talk about the prejudice against girls by dismissing or discounting their ideas and thoughts and prejudice against cultural differences, lifestyles, race, etc which can be passed down to generations just like folktales.
storytelling bug? The occasion is the launch of Aunt Truly’s Tales, a new collection of illustrated stories inspired by a character in my novel, The Kiminee Dream. The fun will begin Saturday, June 5, at 10 a.m. PDT on Zoom and last about an hour.
