For Children
     I have a large collection of stories designed to enhance children's exposure to the art of storytelling.  Story selections include fairytales, tall tales, stories with morals, and family stories.  Most of them are humorous but all of them contain gems of truisms for further reflection.

For Adults
     Adults like to think they have outgrown storytelling.  With my Down Home series of stories adults soon find themselves relaxed and remembering their own personal experiences.  These stories are humorous, poignant, and universal in their appeal.

Libraries and Schools
     "Once Upon a Time. . . " :  This package contains classic fairytailes told in my own style.  My goal is to entertain and perhaps impart a few grains of truisms.  Some props are used including the cut and tell format of storytelling.  This program is most appropriate for children from six through twelve years.  However, this package can be modified for presentation  to preschoolers, ages three though five.

"In My Home Town" :  This package contains stories depicting unusual characters and places that were part of my hometown.  These characters are often eccentric and somewhat quirky.  On the porch I would listen to what the older members of my family had to say about these unforgetable characters from my town's past.
