Here is one method to help achieve the skills of
storytelling:
- Read the story silently, just for enjoyments, making notes of
the qualities that particularly attract you.
- Read the story aloud to help yourself see each scene.
Give the character and events visual images in your mind.
- Think through the story, identifying the plot pictures.
- Read the story aloud to listen to the words, phrases and any
special narration that give the story its particular flavor, realizing
that those are the words and phrase you will wish to retain in your
retelling.
- Begin to rehearse the story aloud. Pay attention to
maintaining spontaneity. Vocal and bodily response should be simple
and informal, yet full of vitality.
- Over learn the story. If you live with it, it will be yours
forever.
