Every week, I shine the spotlight on some of the best storytelling in the business and offer my comments. “3 Great Stories of the Week” will post every Monday at 8 AM.
First thing’s first: this web site looks a little bit different.
I am excited to introduce some visual changes to the Telling The Story blog, thanks to an exciting new WordPress theme that will give me numerous options as a blogger and storyteller. Take a look around:
- Click on the icon in the top-left corner to see a slide-out sidebar full of options.
- Check out the various posts, and notice the color-coding that now exists for each category.
- Most of all, enjoy! The content will remain the same — 3 Great Stories every Monday and a fresh commentary or podcast every Wednesday — but with some visual perks and additions.
Without further ado, let’s kick off the second year of the Telling The Story blog with three terrific stories from this past week:

Niagara Falls.
