An Easy Way To Tell Your Stories Online

How many personal stories do you have to tell? Odds are, with all the life experience you've accumulated, probably quite a lot. Have you ever thought about sharing these stories with others online, but are not sure how to go about doing it? Now, Ronni Bennet, author of the popular web log Time Goes By (see earlier post), has made it a whole lot easier.

Recently, she created The Elder Storytelling Place, a site especially for those of you at least 50 years or older who want to share your personal life stories with the world but without all the fuss that can come with starting your own blog or web site to do it.

From the site, in Ronni's words:

I would like it to become a place where readers sit a spell and "listen" to other people's stories. And then tell their own. Who knows? Maybe in time we'll include audio and even video. Most bloggers have many readers who don't keep blogs and so this is a place for you non-bloggers too to spin your tales for others to read. Everyone's stories are welcome - except that you should be at least 50 years old.


Simply include your story in the body of an e-mail and send it to the site for consideration. To get started and learn more about the submission guidelines, go to The Elder Storytelling Place and click on How To Do It (Left hand sidebar,under the heading, This Is Your Blog).

So, are you ready to tell your story online? The Blogosphere is waiting to hear from you!
