Carnival of Storytelling #1

Welcome to the premier edition of the Carnival of Storytelling!

Thanks to everyone who submitted articles. I really enjoyed discovering great blogs. Please show your support by checking out other articles on these blogs.

I’m hoping to recruit some other bloggers to host the Carnival of Storytelling. And I’m encouraged by the response to this first edition. If you would like to host an edition of the Carnival of Storytelling, please let me know.

Now, the most interesting posts in the blogosphere about telling stories…

• Dino Manrique at WriteLit.com talks about How to Read a Short Story.

• Tery Brouwer of Inspiring Writer lists questions you should ask to Discover Yourself and Your Book. And a bonus: Writing a Book is Hard Work.

And courtesy of your host, a few unsolicited links worth mentioning:

• Craig Mazin of The Artful Writer wonders What Writer Wrote Your Favorite Game?

• Linda Winfree at Romance Worth Killing For talks of her love for The Anti-Hero.

• Christopher Lockhart on The Inside Pitch asks, Does Hollywood Look For a Certain Sort of Storytelling?.

• Jeri Smith-Ready on her blog raises a few questions on Chapter Titles.

• Kathleen Bolton at Writer Unboxed talks about the work of Laura Ingalls Wilder, Little Writer in the Cramped Spare Bedroom (and part 2).
