Thanks, Lance, for "Preserving the art of Southern storytelling".

I love that I get to admit I haven't cornered the market on storytelling, the study of storytelling, the sharing of thoughts about storytelling, and even the telling of stories about storytelling.  So, today I present to you a good case of not reinventing the wheel but admiring one.  Below is a blog written by Lance Wallace.  I'm glad he included the video interview with Paula Martin Morell.  Within that video you'll find a good tutorial about storytelling as well as hear some good reasons why its important.  Pay close attention from 3:50 to 5:10 in the interview, but the whole thing's definitely worth a listen.
