Really excellent post — and a timely reminder about the dangers of a label that’s beginning to stick in places perhaps it shouldn’t. “Teller” is fine by me. The use of “maker” is that it implies originality — whereas authentic storytelling is about channeling the unconscious needs of the audience, very often by reinterpreting myths or archetypal stories that have special relevance today. Where’s the “maker” in that (if we interpret making as an original creation)? The other angle to this is that there is (in English at least) the residual meaning of storytelling linked with infantile, didactic, nursery, make-believe — which in turn gives the impression of “not deep enough for grown-ups.” Thoughtful, provocative post!

No, there is nothing wrong with the word ‘storytelling’, however your article is wonderful as if it is citing the abuses of the word ‘storytelling, well this reminds me of a new kind of storytelling website called papakali.com where it allows the readers to contribute their own versions of stories that will be added to the already existing stories of the South Sound.
