One of my fondest memories of my mother, and a sure sign I was meant to be a story teller happened around the age of six. While telling her one of my tall tales, she told me, 'just get to it already, all these details'. She called me her little 'detail man'. On more than one occasion, while telling friends stories, someone would always yell out; 'get to the end, the suspense is killing me'.
My favorite movie is without a doubt, "The Wizard of Oz", and to me the best lines were delivered by Mrs. Margaret Hamilton, and had nothing to do with a dog. I can hear her now, "These things must be done delicately.' along with, 'All in good time, all in good time." It is my life's goal to learn as much as I can about the writting of tall tales, and bring you the best I can! However you must remember, "these things must be done delicately", and "all in good time, all in good time."
Thank you,
