Hi All,

I hope to see a bunch of you at the show this Thursday.
https://www.meetup.com/Fresh-Ground-Stories/events/265221096/

I also want to let you know about two proud FGS moments.

First, Susan Fee, one of our regular tellers, will be on The Moth podcast this Saturday (KUOW 94.9 at 1:00 pm). I think Susan is the second teller from FGS to be on The Moth. 

Second, Melissa Reaves, another FGS regular, just had her Ignite Seattle talk uploaded so everyone can see it. She told part of this story at FGS earlier this summer. Ignite Seattle is a great place to take the skills you learn from storytelling and use them to share ideas and experiences that need to be heard.

I hope everyone is having a good week. See you Thursday!

Hi All,

Just a quick email to let you know about some of the great things FGS tellers are up to this week.

2. Susan Fee’s story about the mysterious Seattle bus driver known only as Care Bear Bonnie was was re-aired last week on KNKX’s Sound Effect. Catch it here if you want to hear the surprise ending that occurred in the studio during the recording: https://www.knkx.org/post/connection-sound-effect-episode-190
3. The free FGS storytelling workshop is coming up this Sunday. It’s run by two of our regular tellers who donate their time and energy once a month to help others learn how to craft personal stories. It’s a great place to get gentle feedback on a story you’re working on. Click here for more info: https://www.meetup.com/Fresh-Ground-Stories-Storytelling-Workshop/events/264527648/

Hope everyone is having a great week 🙂
