What people have said

My natural modesty makes it almost impossible to say anything about my own work.
So allow me to shelter behind what others have said.

You have such a great conspiratorial way of telling. It’s like you don’t want anyone else but the listeners to know!  
(Gail Herman, storyteller)

Oh, Richard! I just now listened to this story and it is hilarious! You are the best I know at telling improbable tales so that the listener doesn’t even care but wants to know the end anyway!
(Mary Grace Ketner, storyteller – after listening to The Mill that Ground out Silver Coins)

CONGRATULATIONS! You are the recipient of a 2024 Storytelling World Resource Award!
