Summer Nostalgia -- now with music!

[mythteller]

I've gotten such a strong response to my Summer Nostalgia piece that I decided to try recording it as a story. Since I've spent the last year or so working with a musician, I also tried experimenting with this piece by adding music to it.

So I invite you to have a listen to it! Head over to Shortening The Road and take a listen to my recording of Summer Nostalgia, now with musical enhancement!

In other storytelling news, I've put together the story lists for two new CDs I'd like to put together before Yule. The only problem is that I don't have recordings for all the stories I want to put on these CDs, and as I have realized there is no substitute for a live audience, I may need to manufacture an audience of my own.

If I were to put on a house concert of stories in my own house (with tea and scones as a snack!), would any of you be interested in attending? Would anyone here be willing to offer their living room to host a house concert of tales?

Sorry to bother you old bean, are you still willing to give me a ride to and from Raven's Knoll?

I left a voice message for you yesterday but haven't heard back yet, so am wondering whether I need to try and find another way to get there...

Er... I told you when I was planning to leave, asking if that was good for you, which you said it was. I figured it was a done deal.

The plan is still to leave sometime between 3pm and 4pm. Do you have my cell number? Can you call me tonight?

Sorry Hobbes, I didn't have the departure arrangements 'set' in my mind because I wasn't sure about the hour at which you wanted to leave.

Between 15:00 & 16:00 would be great.

I don't think I have your cell anywhere, the number I called from last night is my cell (but its turned off until 23:00 when I get home from work).

If something like that was set up, I'd be there if I could. Your storytelling is awesome.
