Speak Up Storytelling: Matthew Dicks
/On episode #43 of the Speak Up Storytelling podcast, Matthew and Elysha Dicks talk storytelling!

Then Elysha departs, and we listen to Matthew Dicks's story about an unusual late night walk with a friend.
After listening, we discuss:
The best place and most effective way of beginning a story
The importance of beginning and ending a story well
Choosing appropriate backstory and the most effective way of presenting it in a story
